Have never stayed at the Ramada or Bothwell but,,,
Last year I rode the Katy over and stayed at the Best Western south of the fair grounds, South Limit (65) at W.32nd. It is not a bad ride through a residential area to the fair. Where ever, I'm sure you are but just in case, I will say, make reservations in advance, Sedalia is a busy place during the fair.

the Ramada Inn is on the corner of 50 and Winchester. It looks like the best approach to be able to get there is a roughly 2.25 mile ride from where the Katy crosses Clarendon Road. The problem you will have in making this run is that I see no way around going on Y Highway (16th street) or Thompson Blvd for a short time. Given your description, you will have the typical fair traffic, which may or may not be your cup of tea. Other than that, I don't think the possible roads are that bad if you are generally used to road traffic in riding your bike.

The Best Western (I see no relatively majorly traveled roads that way) or Bothwell are probably the best options when it comes to the ride to get there.

But again YMMV and what you are comfortable with. Hope this helps.
