Quaint
Overall, we enjoyed our time in Columbia. It was a short weekend trip and we really only slept in the home. The neighborhood was not as nice as other neighborhoods we’ve stayed in, but it seems the town is older and there was work being done during our weekend to help improve the area. Volunteers were every where cleaning and helping the city. The home was just enough space for us.

We had a great stay at The Purple House
Everything went smoothly from booking to check-in. The house was great and perfect for our needs. It was our first homecoming at Mizzou and we had a blast!

The house was so cute and comfortable. Cozy beds and all. The bathroom had plenty of extra shampoo etc to borrow. My daughter goes to Mizzou so it was a very short drive. Nice neighborhood. Owner very responsive and available for questions. Thank you again!

great value
5 guys enjoyed a Mizzou Dad's weekend. The host was super easy to communicate with. Had an issue that was quickly resolved regarding one or two futons...there is only one. Host was super apologetic and rectified quickly. Would recommend and plan to stay there again.

Good spot for a quick trip
Was a good spot for me, my wife and daughter to stay during a swim meet in town. We ran into a few issues but the owner went above and beyond to make things right for us. Close to campus and downtown.

Stayed here for moms weekend. For 2 people it’s a great spot to lay your head after your sons wear you out! So easy to get to from downtown Columbia.

The futon was really uncomfortable and when I got there the floors were really dirty. I was a little nervous with it being jus off of Worley(I used to live in COMO) but the neighborhood was really quiet.
