Great location, about 15 to 20 minutes away from almost anything in either Kansas City. The staff was great, the breakfast was a little above average for a free hotel breakfast.
The hotel was still overpriced as the beds were comfortable but felt old, the room was muggy until the AC was turned up high, the tiny pool was closed, the exercise room was tiny and the ice machine is broken.
