Fairfield Inn Kansas City Downtown/Union Hill by Marriott

Very quiet, very comfortable, great breakfast buffet, best value in KCMO.

We stayed for 3 nights over the Memorial weekend. It was very busy, but the hotel kept up with that. It was an excellent hotel that I would recommend. It was very quiet and the beds & pillows were very comfortable. I would have given this hotel a perfectd 5 rating, but we went to breakfast on Monday morning a little after 9 a.m. like we had done the previous 2 mornings. The breakfast room was closed and we had not been advised that it would close earlier that day nor had we seen any signs of its shorter hours. We almost ran out of toilet paper. Housekeeping made the bed and emptied the waste basket on the 2nd day. They did not notice that one of the toilet paper rolls was empty and there was not much left on the other. Having covers over the toilet paper dispensers makes it important that they be checked whenever housekeeping is in the room.

For some reason, every time I stopped by the front desk, no one was available. The room facing the main street is pretty noisy. Otherwise, the breakfast is good.

Stayed during the World Cup, since it was in a great location near the Fan Fest, so can't speak to value by any means (ha!), but we had a nice 2-night stay alongside other fans of the game (fun having breakfast with folks from around the world!). We initially got the wrong room, but ended up in a newly-remodeled room, which was appreciated, and took advantage of the pool with two young children in tow. All in all a great option for our purposes!
