About our Staff

Chela and Claudia have been cleaning and caring for my guest homes for seven years. Chela and Claudia do a wonderful job as experienced experts in preparing the home for your stay. To insure our guests safety, we have increased the frequency of cleaning door handles, outlets, walls and have continued the use of high grade disinfectant. All linens, bedding, mats are laundered between guests. As it has always been, the safety and security of our guests and team members remains our highest priority.

Chela and Claudia take pride in their work! They receive extra incentives to do their best preparing the home for you; a bonus is provided to Chela and Claudia for any notes or reviews from our guests that highlight the cleanliness and care provided for your stay.

In addition to cleaning and preparation for your stay, my guest homes also have a full-time maintenance assistant at your service. Also, myself and my  husband Larry, are always  available to you for anything you may need assistance with during your stay.

Chela, Claudia, Maintenance, my husband Larry and myself all comprise a service team of five people to oversee the care and condition of 9 houses. We are scaled to the right size to allow for the time to give plenty of attention to the care of each and every guest home.

Interaction with guests

I’ve designed this space to be accessed at any time (late check ins are just fine). My day job does keep me busy so most likely I will not be there to greet you at the door, but I have a servants heart and I am easily reached. Upon check in if you have any questions or concerns don't hesitate to shoot me a text or give me a call and I will be happy to help. I also know where all the best local dining is based on your tastes!!

Nice house near Capitol
We had a several day event at the Topeka Capitol building. The house fit our needs well. It was clean and had good parking for 2 possibly 3 cars in driveway. The beds were comfortable and towels soft.

I chose this property because it looked nice online and was close to the pool (we were attending a swim meet at Capitol Fed Natatorium). The house was perfect! Cute, clean and great location. We would highly recommend!

Overall summary
Much nicer for the family to stay together in a house rather than a hotel. Two bedrooms and a bath on the first floor,made it easier on the older folks like me.Everything you needed was in this house so you would enjoy your stay.Nicely decorated.Only thing lacking was handicap facilities,and good non-slip rugs in the bathroom,and in front of the front door inside.
