Quick overnight stay

Check-in went smoothly. Did have to inquire about drink coupon we were issued, but they offered that up quickly, however just for one person not two. Garage parking available which was nice. Did have to have the parking tickets validated we obtained which didn’t take long to do upon check out. Room was clean and quiet. We did have to call maintenance as there was no hot water in our room. It was hit or miss after they checked our room but by the morning it was lukewarm. Location was great for what we were doing in KC.

Don't scan QR codes from here

Came here for Valentine's Day and to eat dinner however my girlfriend got sick so I tried to get the special Valentine's Day dinner to go to my room and they told me it was dine in only. I had to cancel my reservation and just eat cheese burgers. The order in room QR code for food turned out to be malicious code and my bank was charged $371 but luckily it was caught. Will absolutely not be scanning anything here, just print a menu it's not covid era anymore.
