"I feel this hotel has slipped a bit from last year. Last year it was such a standout from the other places we stayed on our trip that I really wanted to stay here again. Maybe it’s just that our room this time was upstairs and harder to get to. But the place was perfectly clean and everything functional with great bedsheets. Easy walk to BBQ restaurant."

"We picked this location because it was so close to university of Kansas and it was only three minutes away. The employee at the front door was a great representative of the area. Very friendly, nice and helpful. Rooms were clean. We didn’t swim, but it was a nice area. We used the gym and there was a lot of good equipment. Typical but good continental breakfast. If my child goes to this college, we will definitely be staying here again."
