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.

While staff was nice the room itself and hallways are nasty. As soon as I walked in all you could smell was smoke and marijuana. Floors felt disgusting. Room gave off a musty gross smell. Stained carpets. Holes in the top spread on the bed. I would say this hotel was about a 2/10 stay.

Some coworkers and I was returning to KC from a business trip. There was a Chiefs Game and Nascar race going on, open rooms were very hard to come by. We had limited options for rooms this late at night. We showed up to check in approx 10pm. There were 3 cop cars in the parking lot with two individuals being handcuffed and sitting on the curb. Entering the front lobby, the place reeked of pot. Looking down the halls from the front desk, there was a haze of smoke along with very dim lighting. The front desk has 1" thick bullet proof glass between the desk clerk and the lobby. An armed security guard was stationed in the front lobby. We immediately turned around and walked out and forfeited our room fees.

It was nice and quiet in the environment. Only thing I didn’t like was that there was a mouse in my room (and it came back). Maintenance did help with setting traps at least to catch it.
