Simple stay in the best way

We literally only needed a clean place to sleep while we were in town for one night. This unit fit the bill. Approach was a little confusing as I had forgotten this was a basement apartment, but host was very friendly and eager to help. Outside of property could be a little cleaner, but unit itself was spotless and fit exactly what. Do wish the couch was a little more comfortable, but we didn't need it.

Close to campus

Very close to KU and 23rd which has lots of restaurants. Small, but clean, and big kitchen. Basement of a home and owners live above/laundry in other basement area- so you do hear that as mentioned by other reviewers. We didn't spend a lot of time there as we were moving my kid into an apartment, but very nice people and bed is comfortable. One note: entrance ceilings and shower are very low so it is hard for anyone over 6 feet tall.

quiet neighborhood

The host and hostess were very friendly. The property seems to be under renovation so some improvements may be made soon. It's an older place so normal wear and tear is apparent but its very clean. The kitchen, living area and bedroom are quite large.

Brian and Marita were great hosts!

Place was very clean and was nice to return to the coolness of a basement from the very hot heat of the days. We were visiting family in Lawrence, KS so we only slept there in the evenings. It is a basement so there is the usual basement smell. When I return to visit I will be checking to see if this place is available.

Quiet place in town

While check in was not the most smooth, it was quickly fixed and overall it was a fine place for me for a short visit. Glad to have this option so close to university and the grocery store.

Got the job done

My partner and I were just staying in Lawrence for one night so this stay was sufficient. There was a cat pee smell in the basement and quite a few air fresheners down there too but were all out. We were also able to hear the owners walking around upstairs pretty early in the morning. The owners were very nice and it was a great location close to downtown.
