DO NOT GO HERE IF YOU VALUE YOUR SAFETY! I’m not from Kansas City and was unfamiliar with the area. I booked this on Expedia because it was close to the venue we were attending and it had decent reviews. I would bet my next paycheck that employees are leaving fake reviews! I pulled up and went inside to check in. The employees are behind bulletproof glass. First thing I noticed was the smell. Smelled of cigarette smoke and sewage. (I’m a smoker so it didn’t bother me but since when can you smoke in a hotel???) not to mention I had my kids with me, yes they're 18 but still don’t want them around that. Got the keycards and pulled around to where our rooms were. Observed people hanging out the 2nd floor windows, broken windows and a police officer standing next to a truck that appeared to have their windows shot out. ( I thought hotel windows didn’t open??) I don’t usually just a book by its cover but it was clear the people standing around were junkies. I immediately went back in and gave them the cards and told them we can’t stay here. We never even stepped foot in the room. They’re refusing to give me a refund, repeatedly claiming there is no manager on duty and refusing to even give a managers name. I would be ok with a cancellation fee but I’m now out $400! I’m a single mom and that’s a lot of money to me, not to mention I had to spend $400 elsewhere. Not only is this place physically disgusting but so is the behavior of their staff by robbing me!

Staff were great but the pot smell in the lobby and halls was so strong it was hard to breathe. The room was fine and the bed and pillows very nice. The grout in the bathroom was dirty and molded sround the tub. They rent out rooms by the month so prople are living.there and roam the halls.in bathrobes. I won't stay here again. .

The rudest people at the front desk I have ever encountered in a hotel. Despite having do not disturb on the doorknob they came in anyway. A chair only had three legs, big filthy stains all over the carpet, no towel racks in the bathroom, no hand towels in the hotel, a lamp with nowhere to plug it in just sitting on the side table, something that looks like a smeared booger on the wall which anybody could have removed was really gross. The overwhelming smell of cigarette smoke throughout the hallways and seeping under the cracks of the non-smoking rooms was horrible. Even the thin scratchy towels and wash rags had a smell of smoke on them, as did any item we had in the room. Thread bare holes in the curtains.

The place was clean, staff was friendly. It was a good location since it's by so much. Lots of people outside asking for things, but that's the location too I guess.

Staff is great, but nothing else is. It’s noisy. The room smells. The room looks nothing like the photos. It actually looks more like a school building than a hotel. My room is close to the front so there is a lot of foot noise on concrete floors, which are what the hallways are. At least it’s by the freeway I guess.
