Great place to stay in KC. Gorgeous to walk around by the water or to the plaza. View from the room was beautiful and all of the staff was helpful and friendly. Tyron at the front desk was a delight! We will be back!
There was a dirty towel in the bathroom left by the cleaning person. The breakfast choices were mediocre. Valet service was superb. Bar and its staff was good. The was spacious but I knew that.
The rooms are big, clean, beds comfy, balconies nice. We stay here several times a year for date days. The only thing I would say they could improve on is their bathroom tubs don't drain quickly, so if you like long showers you are standing in about 3 inches of water. It may not be every room, however, they have been the same in all the rooms we have stayed in.
There’s a quick one night stay. Was great and the staff was extremely helpful. We didn’t use many of the amenities, but it was nice they had music that night.
Great location and views, friendly staff. Would stay here again.

Enjoyed the hotel’s proximity to the plaza. Very walkable to everything in the area. The hotel itself is a little dated which can be seen in various areas around, but the staff was very helpful and friendly. Would stay there again.
