Holiday Inn Express Lawrence Hotel

It was very noisy. Our room was next to the interstate.

It was ok, but kind of old and it needed some updates.

It's a convenient location to the University of Kansas and local points of interest. It is close to shopping and excellent eating establishments. It's close to the interstate highway for those traveling by auto. It furnishes an early morning meal, with an attendant on duty, for those who must depart early.

This hotel made me feel respected: When the attendant realized we had stayed there before he bid us welcome home even though he had never seen us before. Being from the town that has the opposing state college for football and other sports we were still treated with the respect that made us feel comfortable.

The location was great. It had a quick check-in. The renovations were somewhat of an inconvenience with hammering beginning at seven thirty to eight a.m., but the staff made arrangements to change rooms to a quieter wing for the remainder of my days in Lawrence. I still prefer being forewarned about construction to make arrangements elsewhere for uninterrupted sleep.
