"Clean rooms, Continental Breakfast had scrambled eggs, sausage links and the usual. Minutes to where we needed to go. Parking was no issue."

"Don’t count on breakfast. Very limited selection and when things ran out, they were not restocked until the next morning. Very few restaurants near by. Room was clean, but outdated. Also, hotel charged a $10 (plus tax) “safe use fee” even though my reservation via Hotels.com said all fees & taxes were included. They told me they would refund that fee, but it still has not been refunded to my card. "

"The ac was strong. But being next to a busy road with door and windows leaking light that at no point left the room what i would consider dark. The front desk was helpful for replacing the towels and such, however the apparent lack of and noise isoation is a negative. Every step or thought of out upstairs neighbors sounded like a horde of wild animals(assuming they weren't just rowdy) and the beds weird thin metal frame thing made my movements echo as the metal flexed."

"Great location and amenities. The room was very nice. "

"This hotel is in a great location in Lawrence - downtown and on the river. I had a riverside room and had a great view of the river and all the activity that takes place there. I'm a birder, and while I wasn't there for that purpose, I saw dozens of birds, including a few new ones during my stay. Eastern Phoebe's, Yellow-rumped warblers and a Kestral were all frequent visitors right outside my window, while the Canada Geese were vocal during most of the daylight hours that I was in my room. The TV in my room had lousy reception - everything was pixelated. I wasn't there to watch TV, so it wasn't a big deal, but it would've been a bummer if there was something I'd wanted to watch. Also, the back deck could use some TLC - lamps are broken, lots of leaves and other evidence that it's not regularly swept or cleaned. The staff were excellent and kind. They broke a role of quarters for me before I headed to the KU campus (the last time I'd been there the visitor parking required coins). I didn't need to use them and they readily took the quarters back. It was small, but kind. I plan to stay here again."

"Room was just mediocre. A/C needed service and was loud! Beds are not comfortable."

"We liked the cleanliness, the breakfast was quite good and the hosts were most pleasant"

"This is an old hotel and needs updating. Communication needs a lot of improvement. I booked this hotel on expedia. The did not mention that the room I booked was not in the hotel building but instead was a motel room. I would not have booked it if I had known. When I asked for a room inside, they said they were full. In addition, the room had an odor. It seemed like cigarette smoke but might have been something else. The sheets were worn and yellowed in spots. I called the front desk to tell them the room smelled like cigarettes smoke and my eyes were burning from it. They said that was not possible because all of their rooms are non smoking. No alternatives were offered. I will not stay here again."

"Needs a shower that has shower doors and needs better lighting in the restroom. Breakfast hours aren't convenient especially when people on vacation. "
