Stoney Creek Hotel Kansas City - Independence

10/10 Excellent
"Loved the entire complex , could have a better food choice at the bar, quesadillas offered was good but basic. Such a lovely hotel should have restaurant / kitchen open until midnight Love the fact that the bar offered local alcohol The outdoor facility with the pool interior and exterior was fun. The grounds are incredible with the lake and the waterfall view , the trail around the lake was easy and very nice Staff was helpful and gym was well equipped"
