The room and hotel are nice. The breakfast was good and the breakfast staff friendly and helpful. The front desk staff was just so-so and definitely could have been friendlier and more helpful. The bathroom is beginning to look worn. The room was clean and the beds were comfortable.

We came into Lawrence for the the Ironman 70.3 race in June. As a frequent business traveler, i am used to staying at HIEX properties and as I can say that this one embodies the spirit of the brand. The folks were very nice, the room was clean and included a microwave and small refrigerator, and the property was convenient... More

We are Platinum Elite Priority Club member and obviously stay at this brand frequently. The hotel lived up to the standards. The gentleman that checked us in was friendly but very quiet. The room appeared to be clean upon arrival but we did not stay long enough to look it over completely. We arrived back to the room near midnight... More

My army unit stays here frequently. The service is excellent, but the property is starting to show its age in subtle ways. Broken toilet handles, clogged shower heads, noisy ac, etc. I have often been given towels at this hotel that were far past the time they should've been replaced.

This was our first stay at the Holiday Inn Express in Lawrence. Our room was more than we expected, maybe since we got the end handicapped room (not by request) and it had a large jacuzzi tub. That was a plus. The TV was HD and in great condition. The location was great for us since K-10 takes us back... More

I picked this hotel based on the reviews here. It was OK, but not what I expected. First disappointment was my fault. I was traveling east on I-70 and thought the motel was near the highway. It is 8-10 miles to the south and I would not have found it without my GPS. My mistake for sure, but my check-in... More

We paid a return visit to this hotel in February 2013 and were once again very pleased with our choice. The hotel is new, clean, comfortable, and conveniently located near the University of Kansas, shopping, and restaurants. The workers in the breakfast room keep the area spotless and the coffee hot. We'll be back.

That next morning a large snowstorm hit the area with over a foot of snow, resulting in very dangerous and limited travel and the closing of the Kansas City Airport.
