This is an excellent choice for guests without children. No breakfast or pool for kids but if you're visiting or working in emporia, then Mainstay suites are perfect. Kitchenettes are excellent and beds are soft.

Kitchen light flickered and TV turned on but did not work at all. Didn’t bother me as I was exhausted and went to sleep pretty much right away. Heat/AC worked well. Bed was comfortable, room was old but clean. Shower had great water pressure. I did not use any amenities.

Breakfast was listed and there is no breakfast. The photo shows a recliner in the hotels. Com ads for this hotel. There is no recliner, and there is none available. Staff explained it away by saying the chain was recently purchased.
