Cons:

My room was not clean when I came in. I'd been there since thursday night until sunday morning and no one had come and cleaned my room or offered me towels. The bathtub have rust in it. And the bed spreads were old there was also kind of a mildew smell

Offers a comfy bed, but lacks elsewhere
Pros:

Bed was comfy. Nice view of the state capital building

Cons:

Room was very very dated. No updated charging ports for electronics, ancient rickety microwave I could barely get to open. Had to complain twice about the loud shrill coming from the toilet when flushed. Which is really off putting considering how updated the lounge area appears. Was also given a room occupied by someone else and had to be moved. Elevators were out of order, etc.

Terrible
Pros:

It’s becoming outdated especially for the price. The same tvs have been there since I have stayed there in the last 10-12 years

Cons:

The tvs, the pillows, the price of breakfast on top of the price to stay there and there where tons of dogs in the hotel barking all hours of the night

My New hang out spot. I came up for the Renaissance Festival in Bonner Springs

The whole ambience.

It will need a few upgrades or TLC once the new owners purchase it.
