    The only negative in our stay this time was the temperature in the breakfast area. I actually had to leave before I finished eating one morning as I couldn’t tolerate it. And that was wearing a jacket. My husband felt the same way as well as the couple we traveled with. It will not keep us from returning, as we have now made it a yearly tradition to return to Unity. However, it would sure be more enjoyable if the temperature was more comfortable. To be fair, I did not make a formal complain but I did mention to the front desk that it was just too cold to stay in that area to eat and she agreed.

    The breakfasts were great. There was a wide variety of hot and cold food to chose from as well as fruit, milk, juice, coffee, tea, etc. the hot food was hot and the cold was cold. The location of the breakfast area was very nice with a gas fireplace, picture windows to a courtyard full of nature. The staff was always friendly and kind and oversaw the entire meal time to ensure all needs were met.

    The room that we had booked was located near lobby and a door. There was extremely loud noise all night, long, where we were not able to sleep. Due to the booking of the hotel, there was no other accommodations to relocate our stay unfortunate we had this type of experience. In fact, the first night we were unable to re-access the hotel after check-in and we’re not even able to utilize our room. The second night stay, we decided to move the barricade in order to access the entrance. Would lead to closed entrances with barricades, making it an accessible after certain hours of night like 10 PM. In addition, the location of the actual hotel did not reflect on multiple location services or delivery services. It is recommended to update your Google maps location as well as other services used for guests and delivery providers to find your location.

    The beds are comparable to essentially sleeping on box springs. One of my kids actually found the floor more comfortable. The breakfast left ALOT to be desired. Don’t drink whatever that garbage juice stuff is. Made me puke nearly immediately.

    Great place. Clean safe environment with lots of beautiful things in walking distance.

    The comfort level was almost non-existent. The beds are SO hard and the chair in the room wasn't any better. We have not slept much since the night before we left home. The lack of sleep didn't ruin our vacation but we were pretty wore out and didn't do everything we wanted to do simply because we were too tired and sore. Also, I booked two queen beds and what I was given was two full size beds. We have king size and queen size at home so we know how we all fit and there just wasn't enough room. The beds are honestly our only complaint. But it's a big enough issue that it's worth mentioning. If you need a softer bed to sleep well, this isn't the place for you. If you enjoy a mattress with zero give, then it's perfect! I thought at first it was just my own personal issue due to chronic pain, but my son and husband neither one slept any better than I did and are very sore after our stay. Also, bring your own pillows. The pillows at the hotel go flat just seconds after resting your head on them.

    The hotel itself and the grounds are REALLY nice! If we'd have felt up to it after sleeping horribly, we would have loved to explore more. The gentleman on evening shift at the desk said he only works Friday and Saturday nights but he was very knowledgeable about the hotel and its history and took the time to talk to my son and I about it. Make sure you ask about it! Very interesting. It was quiet and peaceful. The night supervisor was very accommodating when we asked for extra pillows to try to help our comfort and made some great suggestions of things for us to check out in Kansas City.

    The pillows sucked And I'm not over exaggerating that. It took three of their pillows to equal one regular pillow they just collapse with the slightest bit of pressure. 0 out of 10 very uncomfortable The beds were average at best

    The scenic views around the facility were nice and quaint. It really felt like you were tucked back into the woods isolated from the busyness of the city.
