About this property

Playful, walkable, and comfortable, just steps from Mass Street.

This fully renovated 2-bedroom apartment is located just a 2-minute walk from Mass Street and a short drive to the University of Kansas, offering one of the most convenient locations in Lawrence. Thoughtfully designed with a subtle Monopoly-inspired theme, the space blends personality and comfort without sacrificing ease or livability.

Inside, you’ll find a bright, clean layout with two comfortable queen bedrooms, a welcoming living area, and a fully stocked kitchen suited for everyday meals or takeout from nearby restaurants. While there is no traditional dining table, the apartment is well set up for casual dining and relaxing evenings in.

The living room features a large smart TV with sound bar, board games, and comfortable seating—ideal for unwinding after a day exploring downtown or attending a KU event. A dedicated workspace and fast WiFi make the apartment suitable for both short visits and longer stays.

Guests also have access to in-unit washer and dryer, reliable WiFi, and free parking, including space that can accommodate larger vehicles. The apartment is professionally cleaned before every stay and prepared to look exactly like the photos, so you can arrive with confidence.

The unit is split-level and requires navigating a short set of stairs. As with many central locations, occasional neighborhood or footstep noise may be noticeable. Earplugs are provided for light sleepers, though many guests find noise minimal and manageable given the location.

Guests will have full, private access to the entire apartment during their stay. This is a self-service rental that allows for privacy and independence, with support available through the platform if questions arise before or during your visit. Messages are monitored daily and responded to promptly.

This apartment is best suited for guests who want to be close to Mass Street, enjoy a unique but comfortable space, and value cleanliness, convenience, and clear expectations. It’s a great fit for couples, friends, KU visitors, or anyone looking to stay downtown without sacrificing comfort.

If you’re looking for a fun, well-located, and thoughtfully prepared place to stay in Lawrence, this walkable retreat offers an easy and memorable home base.

This VRBO was amazing. We are a band, traveling all over the country playing shows, and this home was one of the best we have stayed at BY FAR. So comfortable, cozy, and welcoming. The late check out was lovely, especially as we played until 2am, and the coffee bar was a great touch! The beds were SO COMFY!!! I am dying to know what mattress and comforter that is. It's a 2 minute walk into the downtown area, and 4 minutes drive from everything. Can't recommend more!

Great location, great space. Outstanding shower. Clean room and would definetely stay again. Alhtough next time, I'd prefer units 3 or 4 in order to not be on the bottom level and to avoid the noise from the unit above. And having to pay an extra 20 for a late check out was disappointing. But all in all, great place. I come once a year to Lawrence and would stay again. Thank you,
