RUN! This place is horrible!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 11/11/07
We were booked here by the company I work for. Our stay was 5 nights. The room was very small. There was no fridge or microwave and there were no vending machines. You had to go down to the lobby to get a canned soft drink and they were $2 each. There was an office chair and a straight backed chair in the room and since there were two of us, it was very uncomfortable. There was no complimentary breakfast and you had to pay $13 per day for parking. I had arranged to check out at noon since my last meeting wasn't over till then and they started calling at 11 telling my husband we had to get out. One of the days we were there they didn't even replenish the towels. We asked for directions to nearby places to eat and after walking for blocks, we still haven't found them. I tried to find accommodations at another hotel after the first night but the city was booked up.
If I ever go back to Kansas City, I'll be very sure that I DO NOT stay at the Alladin even it means driving across town or taking a bus to get to my meetings.
What really bothered me was that when I was asked about my stay, they just blew off my comments with - "Well, this is a high end hotel".
Traveler beware - if you're looking for a comfortable, reasonably priced place to stay, especially for an extended period of time - the Alladin is not it.
