Verified Reviews of Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Stes Kansas City Sports Complex by Ih

Below are the verified reviews from guests that we have booked recently:
"Shabby, horrible breakfast, bathtub SPRAY PAINTED white, mattress sagged,."
Overall Score1.0/ 5
Holiday Inn has really come down to a new low. This place looked like trash. While we were checking in,a woman interrupted us and told the clerk she knew it would take a long time for us to check in, so she had complaints about her room, so the clerk stopped working with us and gave all his attention to her while we stood there! The entire hotel just appears trashy and low class. We chose this hotel because it is close to the stadium, but we will never stay there again and will warn others not to. Holiday Inn use to be a name and a company that you could trust, but not anymore.
