Was only in KC for 2 days, but absolutely loved this hotel. The staff was extra friendly and helpful, the hotel pool / lounge area was beautiful, and my room had a cute balcony overlooking a nice view as well. I would definitely stay here again if I'm ever in KC again.

The restaurant breakfast was the best that I have ever eaten. Tender biscuits. Gravy better than home. Fluffy scrambled eggs. Keep that cook! Warm enough to swim in the roof top pool.
