Tax-us City
Within the last year hotels in the metro Kansas City area, Missouri as well as Kansas have not only raised room tax rate but also added a per night charge.
In Kansas, the tax is now a whopping 17.85%, plus a daily tax of $3.13. So your $65/night stay at the Airport Sleep Inn is now $80.
Has anyone ever seen a higher tax rate in the U.S? I haven't.
