Terrible area. Didi not feel safe after returning from a concert. People in the parking lot looking into parked cars. Prostitutes in the parking garage asking if your needed company. Service and safety terrible. Breakfast only served from 7am-9am. Check in is at 4pm and check out is at 11am. NEVER AGAIN WILL I STAY AT EMBASSY SUITES HOTEL

Hi Penny, I am very sorry that you experienced issues with our elevators. I do believe they have been serviced and are back in service. I hope you will consider giving us another chance the next time you are in Kansas City.

I didn't like that I was instructed to reserve pool and then not given a pool pass, also my reservation was like 40 more than stated on this platform. Overall disappointed. My stay at the airport location has always been excellent.

We are sorry that you were unhappy. With our pool we have to make new keys for each reaervation time slot. We also, like a lot of hotels, hold additional on your card for incidentals which get released back to you as long as no other charges are accrued. We hope you choose us again the next time you are in the area!
