Loved the hotel

Was only in KC for 2 days, but absolutely loved this hotel. The staff was extra friendly and helpful, the hotel pool / lounge area was beautiful, and my room had a cute balcony overlooking a nice view as well. I would definitely stay here again if I'm ever in KC again.

Staff was wonderful. Very friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. Everything was clean and up to date. Room and bathroom were spacious. Bed was a little bit firm for us but definitely would stay again.
Chandee, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The restaurant breakfast was the best that I have ever eaten. Tender biscuits. Gravy better than home. Fluffy scrambled eggs. Keep that cook! Warm enough to swim in the roof top pool.

4/10 Fair

Disappointing. The advertised shuttle service was not running while we were there. The room did not have a bathtub despite them being pictured on the website for the king rooms, and the service at the restaurant was poor.

2/10 Poor

Front desk attendant was rude at checkout. I challenged the $28 parking fee per night when the garage was only $20 and free on weekends. She did not remove the charges and was very rude.

Great staff and great energy of the whole place.
Ellie, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Not bad. Should be better.

Honestly front desk and valet were great. Location was great. Rooms were fine. Gym was small. Pool was small but nice. Room was ok but while we were out the first day it wasn’t cleaned. Then when we asked they said staff was gone. No one could make up the room. My mid review is based on value. If it were priced lower my rating would be better.
Richard, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Rooms were spacious and clean. Perfect option to visit Kansas City and watch the Royals. I would definitely stay again.
