Good place to stay!

The front desk clerk was wonderful. Very personable. We never did get housekeeping to come and replenish towels. We had to grab them ourselves.

Unhappy.

Check in was slow and not very informative. The room was set to 80 when we got in and it was extremely warm. Parking was horrible. It is a small parking lot and and we had to park over top of the curb and landscape just to have a spot and get things from our vehicle. The back door was was not latching so anything and anyone could come in. Breakfast in the morning was very crammed for space. The food selection was very minimal. Not much out there with a line of people waiting. There was no one at the front desk the entire time we were down for breakfast to talk to about our stay. The key card return box was set on top and that was it.

We didn't like it to where when we went to get the room after booking it on line, there Wasn't any information telling you that there was a required amount of 100.00 dollars deposit on top of what you were already paying. Also they didn't want to give you a receipt when you were leaving showing that you had given a deposit. The breakfast was not too good. My husband had a hard time getting the waffle off the grill for the grill needed to be cleaned so his waffle was burnt. Biscuits and gravy were okay. The best Western plus in independence Missouri was outstanding. We recommend it.

Liked: Clean, staff friendly and helpful and decent breakfast Disliked: got locked in the bathroom the first four times I closed the door and ended up lifting the door off the rollers the last time. Not enough linens for our room, had to ask for more ( odd amount left in room like maybe they forgot to finish linens) . No towels at pool.

Nice hotel

The room was nice, beds were comfortable. The coffee maker didn't work very well and the pool water was cold for my grandchildren. That kind of spoiled their experience. The breakfast was good however with a lot of variety.

Just Passing Thru

This was a quick overnight stay for us. Our room was nice, but the bathroom door was broken and we couldn’t close it. It had a nice pool but it was very very cold. The breakfast was good with a little variety. I would recommend this hotel for a quick stay.

Great fit

Overall was very nice. There was an issue with their system, saying that they had a room available that was not available in return. They upgraded us to a suite for the inconvenience. Then the system malfunctioned again at one in the morning, causing someone to try to enter our room. This was corrected quickly and did not happen again. Everyone was welcoming and nice. Pool was well maintained and good for leisure, even though it only went to 4 feet deep breakfast was adequate with a decent amount of options. Great option for anyone looking to be 10 to 20 minutes away from arrowhead or coffin Stadium 30 minutes from downtown.
