DoubleTree by Hilton Lawrence

My favorite hotel to stay in Lawrence. Not particularly close to anything, but it is large, clean and typically affordable. No free breakfast, although they have breakfast vouchers (which you do NOT get when booking through 3rd party apps) kinda a bummer, I did try asking for some anyways, but was turned down. Pool was closed at my last stay.

This hotel is old and needs updating, our room had a terrible odor and we heard scratching in the middle of the night ( mouse).

The overall hotel was okay, nothing fancy. We only stayed one night so it suited our needs.

To start we had to wait several minutes when checking in because there was no one around or at the desk. Then the person who helped us finally walked up to the desk but did not apologize and was very solemn. She was not rude just very mater of fact. Gave me my key without telling me the room number. Our room had some small issues with mold in corners but the worst was how slippery the bath tub was. Our room was a handicap assessable room, we did not need it to be but my concern is how slippery the bath tub was for a handicap person. My husband fell while taking a shower and was pretty bruised up from the fall. After the fact we should of said something when it happened but did not. It wasn't the worst place I've stayed but definitely probably won't return.

This is a very very old property and quite expensive for a game weekend. It is not in the best of repair in either the rooms or low ceiling hallways and we did have a problem with one front desk clerk, but the general manager took care of it. Other than that the staff is really excellent the pool was indoor and in the center of the rooms like the old holidome and the decor was 20-30 years old, but great breakfast buffet and staff was well trained and friendly.

Room smelled, was damp, walls were cracked and peeling just old and worn out. Bar/grilled was under construction, which meet not much enjoyment by pool and no breakfast buffet

Quiet, clean property. Restaurant on-site had really good food! We also loved the hot choc chip cookies on check-in.

Everyone was very nice!

Great location
