“Great stay, with only one complaint!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 December 2011
2
people found this review helpful

My overall stay at the hotel was excellent. The room was spotless, and the bed was comfortable. The staff was very friendly, and helpful. The breakfast was good, but I am not too fond of the omelets which are a little hard, but the pancakes, bacon, sausage, and waffles are good.There are a lot of great restaurants near the hotel, and some are even walking distance, the best thing is most of them will deliver to your hotel so you don't have to go out unless you want to. There is also a Target, and Walmart near the hotel for your shopping needs, and there is even a movie theater right across the parking lot. I only have one complaint, and that's the TV channel lineup. There were really not many channels to watch, so luckily I had my laptop, and could watch movies on Netflix, and Xfinity to keep me entertained. Other than the channel options, this is a great place to stay, and I would stay again!

Thanks for taking the time to write and post your comments, we really appreciate your input. I agree that our channel line up could use some improvement, and we are working with our service provider in this area. I hope you will give us another chance the next time you are in Lawrence, and that you will be happy with what you find here at that time.

“Great Expereince & Location!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 November 2011

person found this review helpful

Stayed overnight while on a visit to the University of Kansas. Great Location! Movie Theater, Mexican Food and a JC Penny all within EASY walking distance. We did eat breakfast in the morning. The hotel paid close attention to the food quality. Instead of putting out 24 biscuits at a time the hostess would bring out three or four at a time so they wouldn't sit there and dry out. Our room was quiet (303), clean, comfortable, close to ice/soda ($1 for a soda) & the internet worked great. Would book again in a heart beat.

“Best choice for this area of Lawrence.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 October 2011

Quick weekend trip to Lawrence to help celebrate our recent anniversary. We enjoy staying at this brand, as you always know what to expect. Quiet rooms, convenient to restaurants and shopping, and easy to reach from all highways. Would recommend for families also, as they have adjoining rooms. Enjoy your stay!

Room Tip: Ask for a room facing the West as it is on the back side of the property, and not facing the highway...

“Outstanding in every way”

We stayed overnight for the MS bike tour--a tour finishing in pouring rain. They had our rooms ready shortly after noon and greeted us with complimentary towels to clean up our bicycles--which they let us keep in our rooms. We biked across the US last year, moteling it every night, and this was the most bike friendly hotel/motel we've ever experienced. First class rooms, beds, bathrooms, and breakfast! Absolutely the BEST!

This is the hotel my Army Reserve unit puts us up in, when we have an overnight function. The staff knows me by name. The rooms are clean, well-maintained and comfortable. The pool and hot tub are also clean and well-taken care of. There's a bike/running trail right outside the south door.
