This property remains one of the better 'value' spots in the Kansas City, KS area. Everything was in order. All amenities were fully operational...clean linens and room. Quiet throughout the night. Staff is always polite and helpful. Plus got a great deal on the room through HOTELS.COM. Good overall experience.

The lady at the front desk was very kind and wonderful, but that was about as good as it got. The room smelled stale and like cigarette smoke. Our door did not lock, so the bottom of the door was open all night, and ALL you heard was the highway traffic that was impossible to drown out. We will never, ever be back!

Staff and customer service were amazing. There is nothing they can do about the people hanging around. We saw people coming in through a gate in the back area right next to where we would have been staying. That, along with people sitting on the stairwells, made us a bit uncomfortable. We were traveling with children, if it was just us two adults it would have been okay. We were able to get a refund and that was an easy process. Other than that, the property was maintained, clean surroundings, convenient location, great pricing. I would definitely stay if we had no children with us.
