I booked a room for 4 nights as i was in town for work, on day 3 we moved work locations and i checked out a day early. I asked for a refund for the final night the lady said that i have to go through Hotels.com to get my refund. I contacted them and they said that they will get ahold of the property manager and see what they can do. They refused my refund and charged me for a night that i wasn't even there

The breakfast area was clean.There was no milk for cereal provided. No other choices available. It looked like everything was already gone. We had no breakfast.
We were disappointed in cost at about $200 a night but we’re hoping for a good night sleep and hot breakfast when we booked! When we got here Found beds comfy, room smelled good, price dropped, pool was closed. No other amenities, shower doesn’t drain, Bathroom commode / toilet in separate room and is very crowded with shower. And the worst breakfast ends at 9am and not Hot - it’s grab and go donuts and coffee. We could have stayed elsewhere for less with a lot more to do and hot breakfast!
Lobby smelled awful. Dark and dank. Breakfast was stale old pre packaged muffins. Breakfast area was dark. Light fixtures falling off the wall in room. Hair dryer didn't work, no iron, and tub bottom was super slippery.
Room had connecting door to other room but didn't sound like a double door. Could hear every word from people on room next door. Didn't feel safe and ended up changing hotels.
The Continental breakfast could hardly be called that. There was cereal, bread, jelly, three bananas and coffee.
The premises are unkempt and the rooms have light fixtures the were falling off the wall.
The price was amazing, the staff were cheerful and friendly. I was always greeted with a smile from everyone from front desk attendants to housekeeping. Room was clean and comfortable.
This was a fairly inexpensive but well-kept and clean hotel for Lawrence! You can tell they recently remodeled/updated the rooms, which was nice! The outside looked nice as well. Staff was very friendly and accommodating. Breakfast on the weekend closes early at 9. We came in at 9:15 and they tried to find some food for us still. The only down side is the lobby didn’t smell good which was off-putting, but everything else was great! Would recommend!
