Sonesta Select Kansas City South Overland Park

Sonesta Select Kansas City South Overland Park

8/10 Good
"Upon checking in our suite was “over booked” and no longer available so the front desk agent worked for 30min to find me two connecting rooms for my family of 5. The beds were comfortable and cozy rooms. The pool was way too chlorinated that we couldn’t stay in it long. One of our room keys didn’t work the second day but the staff was able to get it corrected. The location was okay, kind of sketchy around the corner but we didn’t have any issues."
