    Our stay at the John Sydney house was wonderful. It’s a historic building with charm and I’m glad we chose this home which supports the renovations of other houses in the area. Modern appliances, comfy beds, and pet friendly.

    Wonderful place to stay. Full of Hannibal charm in a terrific historic area. Owners were prompt with replies and extremely helpful. Rooms are large, beds comfortable, and great kitchen. Walkable to restaurants and the Mark Twain spots. Highly recommend.

    The stay was fantastic! Although many attractions in Hannibal were canceled due to snow, there was plenty to do in the home for entertainment. We played many games and cooked a meal at home. Bedrooms were very clean and kitchen was stocked with all the essentials. We will definitely be back for some more fun and staying with Anneliesa and Jim at one of their many beautiful properties.

    Comfortable home not far from Main Street. This lovely house has been restored with historic charm plus modern conveniences. Plenty of space to spread out and relax, and we would have liked to stay a little longer. Owners are extremely attentive to their renters and assist when needed. We enjoyed taking walks in the neighborhood with so many stately old homes. Thank you for being pet friendly.

    A lot of beautiful work has been done on this historic house. (A notebook with some history would be fun.)There was a couple issues. Upon entering we were hit with a very strong.” old house” smell. A ozone machine or plug-in air fresheners would be great. We got a little used to it.Also, the large house was cooled by small window air conditioners. Two downstairs and one in each upstairs bedroom. we were really worried if it would be too hot to sleep. We did ok, but the upstairs hall and bathroom were stifling. There was an issue in the neighborhood and we couldn’t park in front. We had to leave through the small backyard that was totally unkept. We had to be careful not to fall down.There was a couple trash cans there but they had it look like construction stuff them. It was unclear which one was for the city.

    We had seven adults including one who couldn’t manage stairs well. All of us were very comfortable and had a lovely stay in this historic home while exploring Hannibal. The kitchen was well stocked, sheets and towels were soft and smooth, additional dining chairs were in place prior to our arrival and everything was clean.

    Beautiful, tastefully decorated and well stocked historic home within walking distance of tourist sites and restaurants. We were in town for a wedding and we truly enjoyed our stay. Great front porch and back patio.

    The location was perfect and we loved the architecture/woodwork of the home. Lots of space heaters throughout home to keep us warm on a cold weekend. Beds were super comfortable. Nice touch with the coffees and snacks left for us.
