It was very clean and comfortable. The staff was very nice, friendly, and helpful.

Positives: It was very comfortable, clean, and in a good location.

Loved this Crown Plaza. Have stayed at others, but they were too busy and did not have the ambiance present at this one. The hotel was modern, beautiful, clean and quiet, even though families were present. The staff was wonderful, my room was great, and I had a very relaxing night. Will definitely stay again!

Positives: The hotel was beautifully decorated, amenities were great and modern, staff was wonderful, hotel was quiet!

Negatives: Breakfast buffet was $14, but food was not even close to being worth that, and staff was slow.

I checked the average price of the hotel, and a room's cost was around $140.00. There is NO WAY I would have paid full price for our room. It was average in every way. The staff was nice, but seemed too busy to be bothered. The "heated" pool was 65 degrees and is located in the shade of the tall building. Overall, I would not recommend to others.

Positives: The location.

Negatives: The rooms were dark, small bathroom, maid knocked at door too early, and it was very loud.

This is the kind of hotel, I always tried to stay in when I was traveling on business and was reimbursed by a company. The hotel cost came out of a my own company's fixed price contract budget, but with Priceline discount it was really worth the money!

Positives: The room allowed me to be relaxed and work as needed in a comfortable setting.

Negatives: The bathroom ceiling & shower height was a bit low for a tall guy like me.

Great hotel for location. I would have been disappointed if not for a great rate from Priceline. Parking at $13 a day seemed a little steep, but it is downtown KC. Most hotels I've stayed at in Downtown areas charge this.

Positives: Can't ask for a better location in downtown KC.

Negatives: Parking was pricey, room seemed to be needing upgrades/remodel.

The staff, checking in and out, didn't say welcome to the Crowne Plaza or say thank you for staying with us. They didn't offer explanation of amenities. Because their parking lot was full, we were directed to public parking half a block (uphill) away. The room was attractive and nicely decorated, but there was a lot of of noise from street and elevators.

Positives: It was located close to the Convention Center.

Negatives: The room was noisy. The bed was hard. The staff rude and indifferent.

Location good, but downtown felt very cramped.

Positives: The person was great at the front desk.

Negatives: Rooms smelled smoky.

Lovely hotel, in an excellent location! The staff was wonderfully nice. They were quick to help, and accommodate our family, even though we were paying a deeply discounted price. I would stay there again in a heartbeat.

Positives: Location.

Negatives: Parking.

The hotel staff was friendly enough, although for the star level I did expect more of a concierge which did not exist. The only excellent service came from an 8 month pregnant server at the restaurant who was basically working alone servicing the entire establishment at 7:30 on a Saturday night. The rooms were decorated nicely, however the quality of the hotel is poor. The walls were like rice paper - we were up half the night listening to the neighbor girls argue and constant WHAM with the doors on the floor slamming and shaking our room. I should have expected this since the package on the bed didn't contain chocolate and a welcome message, but ear plugs and an eye mask. We were very disappointed and did not get a good night sleep.

Positives: The KC Strip steak at the City Grille was wonderful. It did take us an hour to get our food, though.

Negatives: Cheaply built. The walls were very thin, the doors slammed and shook your whole room, not a good stay.

This hotel was in a great location, was clean, modern and welcoming. The only downsides for us was the bathrooms were a little on the small side when 2 of you are trying to get ready, and the hotel bar was disappointing.

Positives: Clean, friendly, modern, and excellent location.

Negatives: The bar closed too early and very expensive.
