Have stayed here before, when leaving out of MCI (airport). Great shuttle service to/from the airport and offsite parking for $5/day.
Check-in was a little slow (shuttle needed to leave, people calling front desk, people needing to check in), until the English-speaking night person/shuttle driver came along. Probably the owner's wife staffs the desk; she called in her son(?) to run the shuttle while the other person took over check-in duties. Everyone very polite and helpful.
Rooms are very large, updated. Bed and pillows are comfortable. Rooms are fairly quiet. Amenities very limited. Bathroom large. Shower adequate and steamed up the bathroom pretty quickly.
Housekeeping: mirrors in room and in bathroom were spotted with perhaps toothpaste or spray from a soda. Floor not vacuumed; had to wear shoes in the room. Edges haven't been vacuumed in a long, long time.
Breakfast had a good selection for a budget motel. Heavy on the carbohydrates, light on protein. Coffee not good - airport coffee much better. No other places to go in the immediate neighborhood for either a snack or a meal.
When we checked out, I let the front desk man know about the housekeeping issues. I received an e-mail apology from the manager within an hour of our departure. Would stay here again. 3 stars = average, so not a bad rating in my mind, but resolving housekeeping issues would give it a 4 star rating.
