Orangewood Inn & Suites Kansas City Airport

Orangewood Inn & Suites Kansas City Airport

8/10 Good
"The check in process was very easy. We arrived early and they were able to accommodate an early check in. I had issues connecting to the room WiFi due to the instructions not in the room. I called the desk and was told it was written on my room key envelope. It was not. I was verbally provided the instructions. WiFi worked well for connecting my laptop for work. I needed to print something at the “Business Center” desk but was not able to. The one staff member was not able to assist. I was surprised that I couldn’t cloud connect to the printer to avoid having to log my personal information into their computer. The room was clean and had all the amenities listed. The bed was very firm and we woke up with our backs hurting and all the pillows were highly stuffed. They should make available different types of pillows to accommodate the different needs of clientele staying. Overall it was a good hotel. It is basic, but they provide everything you need for a 1 or 2 night stay."
