We stayed for two nights at the Holiday Inn Express in Kansas City on the Kansas side of the border. The location was fantastic being only a few minutes from the shopping and dining areas on the south side of Kansas City, MO. We were upgraded to a suite which was excellent. The front desk staff recommendations for BBQ were excellent! The one issue we had the whole stay was someone had used the bathroom and left it in the toilet when we arrived. That grossed us out really bad and made us feel like the place wasn’t clean. I was a bit more forgiving by giving the place a 4. My wife likely would have given a 2 or 3. Other than this, we had a great stay.
