What's nearby

  • Dusk looking out over the valley below Mount Oread. Nothing beats wandering this scenic campus to the sound of the carillon bells which sound every quarter hour. On Wednesday evening and Sunday afternoons faculty or students perform on the instrument. Wander the green space around Potters Lake during a concert for a truly magical experience. The campanile is a WWII memorial, so be sure to check out the structure itself too.

Obviously with the price, this is a budget hotel. With that being said, the rooms are clean and nice--rooms are much nice than perhaps the outside looks. Staff is great and accommodating.

Our room was very humid/sticky and there was a lot of mold on the lamps, curtains and in the mini fridge. The vents above the check in counter were very moldy and black. The shower was ripped out if the wall and some water damage on the ceiling. The staff was very nice though. They did have an inside pool that seemed clean.

Other than running my card numbers too much....

Other than the guy at the front counter not really listening to me about my card to be on file that ended up locking my card up from the amount of times he tried to run it. It was a good peaceful experience were they didn't bother me unlike the other hotels I've stayed at in Lawrence KS have been in my experience.
