Pat and Bob are tremendously gracious and gregarious hosts with a genuine desire to see all of their guests are comfortable while visiting their cozy home. Prior to my arrival, I let Pat know that I have some dietary restrictions due to a health condition and asked if I there was a refrigerator to store food brought from home. She said they have a kitchenette in Scoundrels - the addition beside the Belvedere Inn - and put me in Salli's room. Then she must have done some homework and found suitable recipes because every morning she had a fresh, tasty breakfast prepared just for me. The room was actually one of the (or maybe THE) oldest wooden structure in Hannibal and was restored and appointed appropriately with a handmade Jenny Lind style double bed stacked with a plush mattress and lofty feather and down-alternative pillows. There was a small closet with a fluffy terry robe and extra linens, a beautiful antique dresser and wash stand for additional storage, and a full bath. I really enjoyed the laid-back evenings on the back porch talking with Bob, Pat, and the other guests while petting the family dogs, Gus the Golden Retriever and Gomer the Great Pyrenees. I felt like I was part of a big family there, and I look forward to returning soon. Maybe I will see you there and we can have a chat? Cheers!
