Only one person at the desk to check in guests. Waited 15-20 minutes in line. Person was nice, however more staff is needed for a hotel with rooms at this price point. I will look to stay at another hotel comparably priced on future trips.

When I called the Intercontinental Hotel in Kansas City to request an early check in when I arrive, I was told that would be fine. However, when I arrived, they had no room for me and offered 3 sub par hotels 30 miles away with no compensation for travel, inconvenience nor apology.
