A gorgeous vintage apartment with new appliances, full kitchen, high speed internet and remodeled bath. Not one but two striking outdoor spaces—a deck and balcony with amazing views of downtown KC.

Near everything downtown KC with great views of the Crossroads arts district. Dozens of venues are walkable and uber-able: the Convention Center, Kauffman, restaurants, music, bars, light rail line and lots more. Book this highly-reviewed loft now!

Space
You'll be staying in a lovingly restored third-floor loft apartment with a spacious living/dining room, full kitchen, gorgeous bedroom and newly remodeled bath. The bedroom features a private walk-out porch in the treetops and the enormous full-size deck off the kitchen serves up stunning downtown views.

Guest access
You'll have the key code to unit 3N, which takes up half the third floor and is otherwise known as the "White Owl." Also, not to be overlooked—the basement laundry room. (Request the code if needed.)

Guest interaction
We may or may not not meet face to face, but I'm typically close by and happy to offer tips and recommendations on the local arts and food scene, especially all things related to indie music, coffee culture, craft cocktails and beer.

Neighborhood overview
You likely already know. But if not: You'll be in the heart of downtown Kansas City, which is enjoying an urban renaissance reflected in painting and music and dance and architecture, yes, but also in local breweries, bistros, cocktails and coffee. It's a fun time to be here and you'll be in the middle of it. You'll be within walking distance to everything (slight exaggeration, but not a big one). Two blocks from the Kauffman Performing Arts Center. Dozens of galleries, bars and restaurants around the corner. Under a mile to Liberty Memorial, Crown Center, Union Station, the Sprint Center, the College Basketball Experience, and the Power and Light District. If you're looking for a home base for your downtown Kansas City adventure, this is it.

Noise Note
This is a neighborhood with noise expectations, not a spot for parties or events. No shouting, fighting, honking horns, loud music, etc. Common sense stuff.

Just So You Know...
Depending on the route you take to arrive, your first impression of my neighborhood may not be awesome (a couple guests have mentioned this)—the city has some delayed maintenance to do on a highway ramp and several sidewalks, and there are a couple ugly buildings slated for redevelopment. But have no fear! This area is highly sought after and once you arrive, you'll see why (guests mention this too)—your loft is right in the middle of KC's downtown renaissance. So no worries.

Getting around
A lot of your destinations will be within walking distance if you're working or playing downtown. Light rail runs downtown, and Bike Share KC rentals are available nearby, as well as a comprehensive bus system. Uber is popular around here as well. You'll have free street parking at our location, a quiet residential boulevard just around the corner from all the action.

Other things to note
I supply clean sheets, towels, an equipped kitchen, and all basic amenities as well as high speed internet, a blue tooth music player, and smart tv (no cable). If you have questions about specific items, feel free ask.

If you're still reading, well done!—and one more thing. I clean this loft thoroughly after every stay, and I'm a conscientious guy—think vacuuming, spraying, scrubbing, etc. However, this unit is 100 years old, and the floors show it. When you're writing your review, I'd love to get a 5 star "clean" rating, so make sure the building's nicks and paint marks don't give you a false impression of dirt. It's tricky that way.
