When picking a hotel I have several criteria.
1. It must be 100% safe and clean. I normally like to be in an area that has 3-4 or more like hotels.
2. For business trips, it's location convenience first and extended stay hotels for longer trips.
3. I stay in either Marriott or Hilton chain hotels since I am in a member in both frequent stay programs.
4. I try to stay in a hotel with a decent bar and restaurants so if I don't feel like going out I have a place to grab food and drink.
5. I don't spend more than $250-$300 a night when I travel personally. If all the hell I am doing is sleeping, it's crazy to spend $500 a night. Hotel prices have become ridiculous and I have no desire to pay $5000 for a week in a fancy hotel.
Some of the boutique hotels like Aloft, Indigo and Tempo have good prices.
I stayed at the Phillips in KC based on CPs recommendation and liked it. I also stayed at the Sheraton Crown Center and that was very nice. I had a high floor and great view.
