Margaritaville Hotel Kansas City
Friendly and quiet! Pool was nice and the kids loved the video game room. Restaurants and bar were great.

Loews Kansas City Hotel
Please provide more coffee in the room. I'm not a big fan of the taste, but it's acceptable. It would be great to have holders for the paper coffee cups available in the room since the coffee is very hot once it's brewed.

Orangewood Inn & Suites Kansas City Airport
Was worried about noise from alot of activity in lobby/restaurant but once in the room I couldn’t hear anything. Room was very clean. Check-in was easy. Parking for check-in was extremely limited (parking for guests is behind gate access post check-in) but guest parking was plentiful.
