I stayed here while my daughter was in the hospital and the staff was wonderful. They went out of their way to be sure that I had everything I needed. It's a budget hotel and they are working on redoing the rooms. But even the older furniture was spotlessly clean. The bathroom had been redone and is quite nice. The... More

Hotel room was clean, but shower didn't work and when I tried to contact the front desk, no one answered. If you can't take a shower, it really knocks down the experience. Other than the shower, the hotel was fine.

A wonderful surprise! I usually avoid the so-called "budget" hotels, but some sporting event had filled up most of the places in this little Kansas city on a Sunday night. I read the other reviews on Trip Advisor and was extremely impressed, so I went for it. The lobby and small breakfast area were spotless and well-organized. The room was... More
