Felt gross. Bathroom door didn't latch, so I couldn't lock it! Paint stains on carpet... yet the whole place felt like it needed a fresh coat of paint. The breakfast server was lazy and inattentive - on her phone most of the time in the dinning room.

The cards in the hotel say they have extra amenities, but when we asked the night shift worker for a extra pillow and blanket, he told us we dont get any extras because we have a standard room. Everyone else was very nice.

Tired property
It wasn't what I was expecting from a HI Express. From the moment I parked I notice the grass area was not mowed or area maintained. Even the elevator doors were dirty as well as every hotel room door which had huge black scratches. The room bed was clean but the bathroom had mold in the tube and the wall behind the trash was splattered with food. Simple maintenance would have changed the whole look to this property.

Holiday Inn Express is better than this.
I've stayed at a lot of HEI hotels, and our experiences have always been great. So when traveling to KC for a few days this was the logical pick. Staff was very friendly and helpful. However, it is very run down and in rough shape. Lawn is overgrown and full of weeds, a number of places need paint, etc. When tyring to use the shower, the drain was clogged. Maintenance got it better, but still not great. Went to use the gym, to find it only consists of a treadmill and an eliptical. The treadmill was broken, and the person on the eliptical said they would be off soon. When done he went to get a sanitizing wipe, but that was not operational as well. I gave up on the gym. We went to a basemeball game and decided to take a shower about 10 pm. There was no hot water??? Our friends in another room noted the same experience. Overall the mgmt. does not seem too concerned with upkeep. A disappointing experience.
