There were stains on the floor and sitting chair. I had to reprogram the clock because it was off by four hours. I also had to reprogram the tv remote control because it wasn’t even paired to it. One of the mattresses had a large stain on it that was questionable. Fortunately, I opted not to sleep on that bed before I saw the stain.

We were there 2 nights. After we checked in, we never saw a staff person. The front desk was always vacant. Never saw a breakfast attendant. Room was quiet, but nothing special. Was very expensive because of KU football game.

Bait and switch
What a dump. We got stuck in the “other building “ which appears to be a poorly renovated motel. The sheets were dirty and the white comforter appeared to have a large urine stain. Carpet was dirty and It was very difficult to understand what the staff at the front desk were saying. DO NOT STAY HERE!

The only positive thing I can say, is the bedding was clean in the bed was comfortable. Bathroom was disgusting. It were handprints on the headboard and marks from drinks on the nightstand. We booked for two nights and only stayed one night because it was dirty. When I told the front desk clerk that as we were checking out, he didn’t even acknowledge me.

Thoroughly disappointed to find out that the hot tub at this hotel has been out of service for, as the guy at the front desk put it, over 2 years! So, it’s never going to get fixed? It needs to be taken off the list of amenities at this hotel.

Quality in a decent choice
I felt safe which is remarkable in that some motels in Lawrence have semipermanent dwellers that are suspicious at best. I think this the best value for mediocre lodging. Access easy as $6 uber from anywhere in town. Clean and all service in room worked.
