They took my $50 deposit for no reason, literally stayed there for one night and didn’t do any damage or made a mess and I still got charged my $50 plus of how much I already paid. It ain’t no suite paying for that much for one night

DO NOT STAY

The hotel itself looks beautiful!!!! BUT!!!!!! They own a MOTEL next to the hotel and that’s where I was put. No elevator, hallway for stairs were so dirty, low water pressure, couldn’t use the hot and cold water at the same time, pool water stunk and was stagnant. I could go on and on. I felt stuck with my family because there was a big volleyball convention going on and room prices were outrageous. I booked our room 7 months in advance and was still put in the trashy Motel part of their establishment. Mind you…. No price discount was given for the motel portion they put us in. I highly recommend staying elsewhere when visiting Lawrence.

The towels all had stains and/or holes. The pool didn’t look cleaned or maintained. The breakfast options were the same 4 days in a row and tasted horrible and they didn’t have much selection. There was no room service for 4 days and we never saw any room service our entire stay. Everything felt cheap and barely maintained/cleaned. The staff seemed put out when we asked for more towels and toilet paper.

Rooms are outdated. Furniture is old and very scratched. One of the drawers was missing a handle. Towels, sheets and comforters were stained. Some of them very questionable. Mini fridge had leftover food from a previous guest. The bathroom is so tiny that the door almost touches the toilet when closing it. Extremely claustrophobic. Spider webs on the walls. The hallway and staircase area were extremely dirty. It felt like at 85 dollar hotel, more than the 200+/night they charged. Extremely disappointing and never staying there again

We have stayed here about 3 years in a row previously on our trip to Lawrence, Kansas. But this time the place has went down hill. The check in person was the same person bringing out the breakfast and he really looked tired. Shoes were half way on like slippers. Maybe lack of employees?
