Warn visitors that the turn is immediate off of a hwy going 55mph to try to make a turn after coming over a hill. When you miss the turn it reroutes you through a run down neighborhood for several miles.

Nice staff however they do not clean or maintain the rooms during your stay. We always had to ask for new towels, toilet paper and basic necessities. We were often told housekeeping was not available. The price is expensive during a Chiefs game and not worth it. Look elsewhere if you can.

I don’t usually right these but…You better be ready for nascar pit stop breaking. The turn for the hotel is at the top of a hill on a curve. You go from 60 to zero fast to make the turn, and pray you don’t get rear ended. Then we walked in to a stuffy hot lobby. The guy Raj, at the front desk told me we had to put down a $100 deposit ( which was not mentioned in “your this is all you pay” ) So we get to our hot room at on the bottom floor (which was fine) with a very noisy AC unit, (which didn’t cool the room down until the next morning). and the curtains are broken, and don’t close all the way. Raj was having a hard time understanding the curtains were broken, so I went back and closed them with some chip clips. I guess it served its purpose, but I thought I was staying at a Holiday Inn, not a Super 8.

Overall the property was nice. The pool was closed and the ice maker on the lower level was not working. Continental breakfast could be improved by offering fresh fruit. Nice grassy areas around the property to walk a dog. Suggest putting in a dog waste station.

Decent hotel near Kaufman Stadium. It could use some upgrades, but it was fine fir what we needed. Getting on and off the property is, frankly, hazardous because of passing traffic. The roadway traffic makes entering traffic quite tricky. Decent breakfast, nice staff, and reasonable rates will allow me to return despite the traffic issue.
