Newly Renovated Stylish 3rd Floor Apartment 5 mins from Country Club Plaza

8/10 Good

"The apartment is nicely decorated and we were very comfortable during our stay. There were some issues with the locking mechanism for the door upon initial entry, but Ryan was immediately there to help. We quickly learned how to use the system and it made for easy entry going forward. The bed and folded out couch was very comfortable. The futon that folded into a bed was sufficient but slightly difficult to sleep in for my 5 foot 11 daughter.We would rate this location excellent (survey would not allow anything but a good option). Thank you Tami and Ryan for hosting our girls weekend in KC!"
