StoneHill Lawrence, Trademark Collection by Wyndham
Loved everything about our stay and the kind staff, except that the breakfast buffet wasn't very good. Bananas were brown + biscuits were hard & burnt on the bottom.

Comfort Inn & Suites Lawrence - University Area
everything was great. It was a really good price for the cleanliness of the place. The staff was nice. The floors seem like they're probably a bit dirty in the rugs, not because I could see the dirt, but just because it seems like the rugs were worn more than other hotelsbut the rest of the room ...

DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Lawrence
Not much information given by front desk attendant when we checked in; wasn’t given any breakfast, bar or parking info. There were outside doors way closer where we parked that we had no idea were there. Hot tub was shut down and covered with a tarp and tape.
