It’s clean, up to date hotel. Close to Top Golf, Cheese Cake Factory, Whole Foods, and a lot of shopping areas. Price point it’s fair and worth the price. The exercise area and pool is above average but nothing that is going to knock your socks off. No breakfast is a bit of a bummer. I’ve stayed here 6 times over the last 4 years and it’s never been a bad experience.

Booked a king suite, at check in was put in a double k, told that there were none available. Parking was actually in the Childrens Mercy overflow, so you had a considerable walk from your car to the front entrance. They charge $ 9.95 for a breakfast that at Drury or Country Inn by Carlson, would have been free, with a better selection of food. Will not be staying with them again.

Bad service. Simple requests were met with opposition. You think it’s going to be fine, what could go wrong? Plenty. Steer clear.

Wonderful, restful stay! Not only were the 2 Queen beds in our room both extremely comfortable, but the kids thoroughly enjoyed the pool — open till 10 pm. Only downside are the TV(no DVD) doesn’t have side aux inputs. and breakfast isn’t included in the room rate, although kids 12 and under eat free with paying adult. There are plenty of breakfast areas nearby on Metcalf, if you want a huge spread, and the dining area offers good meals. The room had a microwave, K-cup maker, and larger than dorm-sized fridge, so leftovers from local restaurants can be saved for later. No complaints at all, desk reps were polite and professional, and the business center had 2 printers /PCs, which I used to print out local Unilocal approved eateries. All-in-all, a great bargain in a great location just off of 435/50,(Exit 77B). Definitely recommend, especially if you use Priceline’s 3 star rating for the Overland Park area. Oh, and if you’re needing their services, the Children’s Hospital is literally next door.

Do you like to be awoken every 15 minutes by a 737 jet turbine air unit in your room? Then you will love this hotel. Do you like a dead sports bar with two old guys choking down whiskey? Then you will love this hotel. I got the«remodeled» room, which looks like the same old room with a new TV. I wouldn’t stay here for free next time I’m in Overland, I should have known better.

Clean hotel with updated furniture and bedding. It seems to empty out on weekends, and thus, it has lower weekend rates. Rooms have mini fridge, microwave, and large flat screen. Hotel has a small indoor pool as well. It’s located right off the highway(I-435) in the middle of the business area of Overland Park, KS. Location means that there’s easy access to the interstate which will have you in downtown KC within 20ish minutes(except rush hour). Shopping and lots of chain restaurants are a short drive from hotel, but local establishments can be found too.

Some other reviews mentioned that funky smell. It wasn’t me, and I noticed it too. It’s in the rooms, the hallway and the elevator. Really bad in the elevators. But not in the lobby. I don’t get it. The hotel’s location is convenient, the free wifi is nice, and besides the funk, it seems clean. The parking in the garage is very tight, and the exercise room and pool are obvious after thoughts. There are better options in the area.

I’m not used to staying a non Hilton brand hotel but my work has a ridiculously low rate here so I can’t really stay anywhere else when I am in the area for work. I’d compare the quality of the Holiday Inn to a Hampton — decent sized room, comfy bed, adequate facilities(business center, gym, bar), free internet and a breakfast area. If you’re a member of their rewards program, breakfast is free and you get a free nightly cocktail. We definitely used that nightly cocktail coupon — their bartender was adequate but he promptly closed the bar at 10 even though there were still people in the bar and we wanted to drink more. FAIL. While I am complaining, my room smelled slightly stale, like they cleaned the carpets and didn’t let them dry completely. I had to run the AC on high the entire time so I couldn’t smell it. My co-worker also had the same issue on a different floor. And despite the AC on full blast, the walls were super thin and I could hear any time my neighbor used water. Sigh. I’m going to give them a pass for now since I didn’t complain to their staff about my issues. But there will be a next time and I will deduct stars if needed…

Extremely close to 435/Nall exit. Clean. Quiet. Very comfortable bed. Free cocktail, cookie, bottled water just for being in membership program. Well lit, safe area. Flat panel TVs. Beds are actually NICER than a 4 star Westin. My only complaint was the bathroom door was so large and swung inward to the bathroom and blocked pee access to the toilet and shower, took some maneuvering. Had plenty of mirrors everywhere. Was spending 2 – 300 a night in downtown KC just to be near«attractions». I would stay here again because KC has such good highway system you are 20 minutes from anywhere(rush hour excluded). I actually felt some value.

It’s clean, and neat with a bar. Breakfast can be bought in the eating area or you can have it delivered to your room. The staff is very efficient and helpful. I needed toothpaste and they offered to bring it up to my room. I also facilitated meetings here. Having a meeting here was an awesome experience. Everything was set up prior without any hassles. I had everything that was requested in place, and staff helped as need in between as well.

Small clean, near Overland Park Convention Center. For a small hotel, the rooms were a lot bigger then they appear. Free Internet as always. No restaurant…
