Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Our room was a bit rough around the edges. It seemed a bit dirt and it looked very dated and worn out. The outlets near the bed were very loose/old and it was hard to get things that were plugged in to stay plugged. The drainage in the bathroom was very poor and we showered with a few inches of standing water. The staff was a bit rude a few times and they really didn't act like they wanted to be there. I totally get it but it didn't make our stay any better. They were responsive when we asked for something, their attitude was just off-putting. We probably wouldn't stay there again.

The staff were friendly and very helpful, especially Mr. Patel, who worked very hard and always seemed to be on duty. The shuttle service was great. I did notice that the workout facility equipment is outdated and worn. But overall I was pleased and would probably stay in the hotel the next time I pass through Kansas City.

The outside of property seems orderly and up to date, the inside is a different story. Very dated it's like you're walking into a 1980's-time capsule; the room just did not have a clean feel blinking light on smoke detector kept me up along with the worn-out lumpy bed if they want to stay in the hotel business it's time to pump some money into the place and update.

Stacey

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
The staff members at check-in was rude. I called to make sure I could have a jet tub even though I’m bringing my dog, I was assured by the hotel that I could. When I got there I was rudely told I could not. That dogs aren’t allowed in the tub. I explained I was not putting her in the tub. My husband and I have not had a honeymoon and have been married almost two years, I thought a romantic soak in a jet tub would be nice but the staff meme we was cruel, rude and disrespectful towards me. I will never stay at a best western again. They are now mostly run by a masogastric culture and I do not like to be treated like I am less than as a woman.

Liked: Staff & service
The staff was great and accommodating, however the property is a bit more run down than I'd expected. The pool was a bit cold, but my main turn off was the rusty light fixture in the pool. The fitness centre appeared well stocked upon arrival, however the weightlifting machine wires were not on the wheels properly. I tried to fix it myself to no avail. It's broken and unusable. I was excited to see a peloton bike, however the bike and the treadmill were unable to connect to wifi limiting its features. There was a thing for Sani wipes, but none in it or put in wrong, couldn't tell. The floor in my room was highly uneven. The breakfast was nice including egg, sausage and chunky hash browns. However the breakfast available from 6-9, by 8am there are no hash browns which was disappointing. The shuttle to/from the airport was highly convenient. The Airworld Park across the road is a gorgeous short little was around a body of water, home to large fish and many birds. Nice walk after a long day of flying. It was neat to see the Vita Course built along it.
