• Age, refurbished ness, elegance, location downtown, friendliness of the staff is superior.
• Pricey-ness of the food.

“Lovely location, close to museums, elegance and stateliness of the hotel, walking distance to old town, and best of all, friendliness of the staff. one waitress went out of her way and stayed on the job longer (past closing - we had a late arrival) just to serve us a glass of wine and some waters when it was time for her to go home.”

• The historic architecture and its location.
• Quality of the rooms.

“I have been staying at this hotel for three years and the last two or three times it seems that it has gotten more run down. Stained carpet throughout, wood doors that are chipped, water coming from the ceiling of the shower when I took a shower causing plaster and dry wall to fall on my head etc.”

• Decor was great. It is a historic hotel, from a time gone by. Marble floors.
• Wireless internet, poor server and poor strength. My computer kept looking for stronger signal.

“Once we arrived it was everything we were looking for. My wife attended a class close to the hotel which made it easy for her to get to the class. The hotel was clean, the staff was friendly and our room was clean, nice and the bed was good. The dining areas were excellent and the bar and grill were nice. The only problem we had was that my wife is taking on-line college classes and the wireless internet connection was poor on the 7th floor. My wife had to go to the business center on the lobby floor in order to do her class. Also had free parking across the street with security.”

• The hotel staff was very helpful. They actually upgraded my room to a spacious room with a nice view and a comfy king bed!
• This sounds overly critical but the recorded voice in the elevator is extremely annoying, startling even!

“This historic hotel is very comfortable and well-appointed if not a little threadbare (particularly carpet and coverlet). However, it is well-located, the room was spacious and very clean and the staff was very helpful. Breakfast was excellent and I highly recommend it. My stay here was very pleasant!”

• Room service didn't answer the phone.

“Overall the hotel and staff and accommodations were very nice. The rooms were nice and spacious and the staff was gracious. The only problem was room service did not answer the phone at any time of the day.”

• It was quaint and so had a fun atmosphere.
• It was outdated and not well kept, scuffed/scratched walls, mold, etc.

“Although quaint, this hotel was slightly outdated and unkept. It was missing an elegant feeling that could easily be obtained by better up keep. Our overall experience was not bad, but I would not choose to stay there again.”

• I liked the location. Being so close to downtown made it easier for us to get around and to visit family and friends.
• The front desk staff could have been more friendly.

“Being a native of Wichita, I have always been impressed with this hotel. This trip was the first time I had ever stayed at the Broadview, and I certainly was not disappointed. Some of the reviews by others mentioned that the air conditioning was not up to par, however, my wife and I found the air conditioning working fine. Those people who have been used to Freon powered air conditioners, need to start getting used to water-cooled air conditioning systems, which are actually much, much better for the environment. We had a great time, and will probably stay at this hotel again.”

• Great architecture and beautiful lobby!
• Parking was across the street from the hotel.

“Nice rooms, great river view on the west side of the hotel. Staff was friendly and accommodating to our needs. Pool was located next to the river Downtown which gave it a very nice appeal.”

• Historic nature - nice pool.
• Other guests - large groups of young unattended athletes.

“The first night I had trouble getting into my room due to the card reader would not completely unlock the door. I had a maintenance person let me in my room. The first evening I killed a very large spider on the wall and a small spider in the bathroom. The second night I was unable to get into my room due to the card reader again. The maintenance person took until approx. 10:15 pm to complete changing out the entire card reader from our door. While the maintenance person was in our room my daughter noticed a small spider walking across her pillow. I killed the spider after showing it to the maintenance person. The third night my daughter was bitten by something and had a large bite mark on her ankle (I took photos). I told the front desk management about this and phoned a management person that day to let them know. I was told an exterminator had already visited the room and found no evidence of spiders. I will not stay here again, nor would I recommend it to anyone else.”

• We enjoyed the room and the overall atmosphere of the hotel. It was also centrally located in downtown Wichita.
• My wife accidentally left her flat iron in the room and we have had a horrible time getting them to respond to her messages.

“We really enjoyed our stay at the Broadview. During our stay, the staff was courteous and prompt in their service, and the room was quite nice.”

• Very historic, good location, large room and large bathroom.
• Parking was across the street. The carpets were not very clean.

“The hotel was fine for the price. They were unwilling to let me request a king an hour before hand. No requests could be made until I arrived and then she was a little frustrated.”

• Good location.
• Small rooms, no restrooms in the pool area.

“The hotel was conveniently located. Rooms were clean but on the small side. Friendly staff. I did not use the restaurant. I did use the pool that was located across a roof top and down steep steps. There were no restrooms at the pool and the trek back to the hotel was long and inconvenient with two small children. However, the pool was adequate and had a great view of the river.”

• Very dirty, bathtub and room in general.

“Not worth the money. Both room were not clean and the beds were hard. Also it was freezing cold in rooms.”

Cleanliness:[7] • Staff:[6] • Location:[9]

• We liked the location and the room was large.
• Badly stained carpets, upholstery, splintered furniture, parking across street and not well lit.

“This is not a 3 star hotel. I would be gracious to give it two full stars. The carpets were badly stained and the wooden furniture was splintered including the headboard and footboard on the bed. The rooms were in major need of an overhaul and a good cleaning. The only parking is across the street in an unmonitored and not well lit parking garage. Guests have to walk across the street with all of their belongings in order to check in which can feel very dangerous at night due to the lack of lighting. There are signs scotch taped to the walls in the hotel room as well as a waiver that guests must sign stating that the hotel is not responsible for anything that happens to guests or their belonging in the parking garage, inside or outside of the hotel room, or belongings stored in the hotel room.”
