"The staff were beyond terrific! Can’t say enough about them! Our room had an issue where the tub and sink were backing up. We reported it and they came and fixed it pretty promptly. The breakfast was plentiful and the woman working it was helpful and kind. If you are going to a chiefs game it is a great location but you don’t want to be out walking in the dark. There was a fair amount of homeless people in the immediate area."
