We stayed here to attend a Chiefs game and the location was great. Easy to get to and from the stadium with minimal traffic. Lots of restaurant choices nearby. Our room was comfortable. Our bathroom door did not close/latch all the way. Not sure if it was just warped at the bottom or what, but the room set up was private enough that it didn't cause much impact. We loved the hooks and extra space on the wardrobe to put both of our suitcases. Most hotels only have room for one suitcase and the other one sits on the floor. It kept our room looking tidier. Breakfast was typical. Eggs, sausage, biscuits, toast, oatmeal, fruit, yogurt, pancake maker. The Mexican restaurant next door was nice to walk to and the food was great! I was a little skeptical booking this hotel after reading through some of the reviews, but we had no issues (other than the bathroom door which wasn't really an issue to us).

Just checked in. It is 8:44 pm just got to the room. The room feels dirty, and the reason I stayed here was because of the hot tub, and the hot tub is broken. So I don’t believe the property is making good on their end of maintaining their property. I am disappointed with this property. So this stay is going to non enjoyable and relaxing. Stinky nonrefundable room with a nonworking hot tub. So we tried the sister hotel Comfort Inn with no luck because the pool and the hot tub are not working. It would be awesome if Expedia would help you in finding out if the hotels amenities are up to par when their customers are trying to find a room to feel relaxed and feel good after their stay.
Dust
Holes in furniture
Messed up tub floor
Water damage probably the reason it stinks in here.

This hotel lacked of good maintenance. It seemed like a hotel that was about to close it’s doors, poorly managed. The bathroom was very old, the tub was disgusting. It screamed renovation.

Not up to standard.

I was disappointed with my stay at this Holiday Inn Express in Independence. It was pretty dirty. The only way I was able to tolerate my stay was. I had cleaning supplies with me. I cleaned out the tub of soap scum and the nastiness of the bottom of other feet. The tub was not white. It was gray. The corners still had existing dust. The windowsills were as though they hadn’t been cleaned in quite a long time.
