"Enjoyed staying at Aida!"

The Fontaine

10/10 Excellent

"It is a beautiful hotel with large comfortable rooms. It is close walking distance to great restaurants and shopping. We enjoyed cocktails and appetizers at the roof top pool. Our server Tamara did a great job. We were there on a Saturday so the pool was very busy and we were a large group of 9. Tamara had great customer service. She did a great job keeping up with the large crowd and the cocktails and food were both very good. The front desk staff that checked us in and answered any questions we had during our stay also had great customer service."

Cascade Hotel, Kansas City, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel

8/10 Good

"Very nice modern hotel, extremely close to the country club Plaza shopping and restaurant district. Decent size rooms, very clean. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Only slight missed steps were a noisy refrigerator that squealed most of the night in our room and could’ve used a pool, but that wasn’t the primary reason we were there. Would stay at this hotel again for sure!"
