Staying at No Vacancy in Kansas City felt like stepping into the future. The hotel is undeniably hip, stylish western design, and a vibe that still manages to feel warm and welcoming. Our room was spotless and well maintained, and check-in was as easy as it gets—fast, digital, and entirely contactless. For introverts, or anyone who prefers efficiency over small talk, this setup is fantastic. It reminded me of riding in a Waymo: everything you need without the human interaction. It’s a glimpse of what hospitality might look like in the future, and for the most part, it works very well.
That said, guests should be aware of the fees. In our case, the extra charges ended up costing more than the base rate for the room itself. Extending time came with an additional fee, and several other line items showed up that weren’t clearly explained. While the space and concept are great, the layers of fees made the overall value feel less straightforward than we expected.
Overall, No Vacancy delivers a clean, modern, and efficient stay with a unique approach to hospitality—perfect for those who value privacy and independence. Just budget a little extra, as the fees can add up quickly.
