We stopped in here for dinner and it was DELIGHTFUL! From the aesthetic of the restaurant to the server to the food! Not one aspect of our meal was less than great! We both had the two meat combo with two sides. Brisket was tender and juicy, the pulled pork was very flavorful, burnt ends were worth the extra two bucks! If you are in the area, you gotta try the Red Shanty!

My friend and I attended IHOP's Prayer & Prophetic Conference this past Oct. 2012. It was amazing…read moreand life changing! For a few months we were looking at hotels around the area and for this and that reason, we could not decide. It was coming down to a few weeks before the conference and we didnt have a place to stay. I desperately googled housing near ihop and Paul & Djany's website www.Housingnearihop.com popped up! At first I did a double take because I thought, what are the odds...a good/clean/affordable place?! It turned out to be better than any hotel/motel we could have booked. Their website is very easy to navigate. I just filled out the booking form and Paul promptly replied the next day. Even before we met, Paul encouraged us via the emails that we were going to encounter God and be blessed :) I felt so encouraged and became even more excited for the conference. When we arrived, we walked into their very warm and cozy home. Our clean/beautifully decorated master bedroom welcomed us with chocolates/candies on the bed. The master bedroom has a bathroom attached, so it was very convenient. You are welcomed to use the kitchen- store your food in the fridge/cabinets and cook your meals. The house is very close to IHOP's main sanctuary (8 min drive), as well as the Prayer Room (5 min drive). You can even walk to the prayer room from their home and IHOP has shuttles that take you straight to the main sanctuary. The hosts Paul & Djany were absolutely amazing! Very friendly and welcoming. Usually when I am away from home, I become home sick but I was at complete peace and was so blessed during our stay. They truly want to encourage & bless everyone that walks through their doors and oh how I felt the love of God through them. I'll never forget the wonderful time of prayer/praise/fellowship that we shared. I just knew God lead us to their home. I am so thankful to this beautiful couple and to all the wonderful friends we met during our stay. Love you guys!! We will be back soon! Save a room for us :D Love, Michelle :)

Djany and Paul were so accommodating! I spent three nights at their place. Although their place is…read moreextremely close to IHOP (25 minute walk), they were incredibly generous about picking me up and giving me rides to the prayer room. I was given a quiet room upstairs for a great price. Considering there are no hotels in the immediate area that charge as little as they do, I highly recommend Djany and Paul's place for housing near the IHOP prayer room. And lastly, their hospitality displays their deep love for Jesus and conveys their uncompromising hungry which is contagious for all those that get an opportunity to be in their presence. I look forward to coming back and spending more time with them!

We enjoyed the indoor and outdoor water slides, something you won't find hardly ever. We played putt putt golf after. The entire perimeter of the property is dedicated to fun activities for kids. You can tell it is family owned and they take pride in it. From the fully stocked pool towels, the spotless rooms, the clean fresh scent everywhere, and the well maintained facilities and amenities - nothing here has been allowed to slide. Everything is open longer than other hotels, the service is fast and friendly, outside is well lit and spotless. Chain hotels around here charge more, and offer much less. I highly recommend!

Our stay at No Vacancy was unfortunately the most frustrating and poorly managed travel experience…read morewe had on our cross country drive. The property operates on a self-check-in system, which would be acceptable if the instructions were clear and the support was competent. We were traveling cross-country from Los Angeles to North Carolina in a 10-foot U-Haul and called ahead around 10:30 p.m. to ask about parking. The man who answered was distracted, dismissive, and clearly uninterested in helping. He quickly texted a generic message recommending street parking or a nearby lot. When the lot turned out to have low clearance for our truck, we called back for alternatives, and his response was, "I don't know, Google it." When we arrived, we encountered extremely confusing and conflicting signage inside the building. The elevator included a large sign stating "Elevator 1 ride every five minutes" and directing guests to take the stairs through a nearby door. There was also a prominent "No Vacancy Floor 3" sign inside of the elevator, which made it unclear what level we were on. After struggling to access the room, we called for assistance a third time. The man on the phone was again curt and unhelpful, repeating "you're already on the third floor" instead of actually assisting. After several minutes of this, I said calmly but firmly that I was out of patience. He responded by telling me to "calm down." I replied, admittedly using the word "fuck" and asked him not to patronize me and to simply explain how to access the room. We then hung up and figured it out ourselves. Within minutes, he began sending a series of increasingly accusatory text messages blaming us for "not reading the instructions" and demanding a $125 "refundable security deposit" via an unfamiliar link, something never disclosed on Booking.com or in any of the pre-arrival information. The language of the text ("your stay will be deactivated within 1 or 2 if not paid") was unprofessional and vaguely threatening. The timing of the message, immediately following our call, made it appear retaliatory. The listing claims the room "sleeps three," but it includes only a king bed, a narrow twin Murphy bed, and a small leather sofa. This worked out ok for us but would be unsuitable for most groups of three. Not the end of the world but worth noting. The bigger issue was that the bathroom door is fully transparent glass, offering no privacy whatsoever. We were two coworkers sharing the space, this was extremely uncomfortable. The entire experience suggested a complete lack of hospitality, professionalism, or basic guest care. Between the confusing self-check-in, dismissive communication, unsolicited payment demands, and intrusive follow-up messages, I cannot recommend this property to anyone seeking a comfortable, simple or respectful lodging experience.

No Vacancy has a bit of a reputation as an elusive, sophisticated, staycation spot in KC. With…read moreminimal advertising, and signage, it's been able to maintain an element of mystique in the city and whenever I catch wind of someone I know staying here they always reminisce on it simply gushing with good things to say. All of this being said, when my brother in law got married and rented the space out for the bridal party (of which my husband was a part of) I literally JUMPED at the opportunity to stay for a night and see what all the fuss was about. So I knew in general where No Vacancy was located but couldn't recall any signage on the street so into Maps on my phone the address went and I was on my way. Upon pulling up I was struck by the Wes Anderson nature of this whole adventure. There is a very quant striped anning that simply reads "No Vacancy" - it would be very easy to miss if you weren't looking - but I was, and so upon noticing it I entered my code and in I went. Once you walk in, it's quiet and you are faced with an elevator so in you go. No Vacancy is on the third floor and upon entry it's literally like walking into a catalogue that showcases homes from the mid-century in Palm Springs. My family had rented the whole space so we found our room and settled in, but if you rent one room you simply find yours and your code will give you access. The shared spaces are nothing short of perfectly curated, all gorgeous and Instagram ready. The outdoor space is really the most perfect place though, with wonderful lighting, a fantastic mural, and nice seating, it really makes for a surprisingly serene getaway in the heart of the city. As for the beds and the shower? All comfortable. We really enjoyed our stay 100%. Only thing I'd say is if you have small children this might not be the stay for you as there are loads of breakable decor and I kept thinking how glad I was that we were here solo without our three year old as it's really not the most child friendly environment. Absolutely perfect for a night away with your partner though.

We were attending a Murder Mystery Dinner in Excelsior Springs and decided to find a place to stay…read moreto avoid the drive home. We stumbled upon Payne Jailhouse Bed and Breakfast. We were amazed at the beautiful house and how it was set up as a Bed & Breakfast! Mark and his wife, the owners, used to live in the house but decided to change it into a nice getaway for guests. The house in the front has the largest room, but expect to walk upstairs, as that is where the bedroom is. The guests from the other three private apartment rooms stay behind the large house; they all meet in the big house (no pun intended) to have Mark's hot, homemade breakfast. Oh, I almost forgot! The house is so clean, I didn't find any old dirt in the corners of the floor, against the walls anywhere. I am semi-OCD and will not go without house slippers. Well, I walked barefoot in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom. I'm sorry if that is TMI. I wanted you to understand my point. Do not hesitate to book; do not let the name keep you away. It is not set up like a jail on the inside. The house has history, and Mark will tell you about it during breakfast or upon check-in. Don't hesitate! Book today! You will not be disappointed.
