There is a Super 8 at 71 and 155th, I'm not sure of the quality of the rooms, but I've been to the bar there (The Zone) and it's not bad. I'd still be inclined to stay at the HI Express in Belton though, if I was making recommendations. The Super 8 is on the border of a pretty seedy neighborhood.

Seconded. That hotel has been abandoned by BW because it's probably gonna fall to the 71 expansion. You'll see when you get there. The Macdonalds and former HQ to the immediate north has been razed, as has the UMB Bank to the immediate south. I can't imagine the quality controls at an unbranded hotel on the verge of destruction.
I'd second continuing on to Belton as well. Or you could backtrack up 470 to Lee's Summit, or west on 435 to Metcalf and find some nicer digs. I know there's a Residential Inn and several others [the one with a tree as it's logo] at 435 and Metcalf, about 10 miles from Main in GV. There's also an Extended Stay and a Court Yard at Holmes and 435 that's only about 5 miles away. Also available and really close is the Days Inn by the U-Haul across 71 from Truman Corners.
Oh, and to give you some insight into the quality of the Super 8, just a few years back it was a dorm for a truck driving school.
