Lawrence, United States of America

Convenient, easy access, close to attractions and in a nice neighborhood.

Patricia, United States of America

The bed was very comfortable and the room was pretty clean. I didnt like that the hotel wasnt faceing the lake so we didnt have a good view from our room. Other then that the staff was friendly and met all our expectations.

Carrie, United States of America

The location was excellent, very close to the metro and by the lake shore. The rooms were fine. It is a motel, rather than a hotel, so there are are no facilities such as coffee bar, gym etc. Still, who needs them? Staff were helpful and friendly.

John, United Kingdom

It is close to my family. It is a basic, no frills facility at a great price. It is very clean and the staff is very accomodating and nice.

The staff member was very rude and aggressive. He made me uncomfortable. The hallway and room smelled of heavy marijuana and management did nothing about it. The carpet was stained and the room didnt appear to be fresh. I expected better quality in the Hyde Park Neighborhood near the lakefront.
I liked the neighborhood.

Well the first night the room (503) had a smell even the hallway area, so w got switched to room 509 however that room did not have fridge or microwave like the other. The water wouldn't turn off in the bathroom tub and I was afraid that I was going to break the handle.
Close to the surrounding neighborhood and easy transportation to downtown. Deja was super nice!
