TownePlace Suites Lawrence Downtown

just went down for one night while husband was at a seminar. Very nice room, will go again

在Downtown，環境一般

酒店在市區，房間比較新也很乾凈，早餐還不錯

Terrible hotel with terrible service. Front desk clerk was rude and condescending. Not a good start when the first person you deal with at this hotel is so rude. Way better choices in Lawrence. Will make sure my fellow Jayhawks know to avoid this hotel.

It was graduation weekend, so I guess we should have expected to be gouged--mission accomplished, Marriot. Nearly $400 for one night. You'd think at that price, there'd be one great thing after another, but no, not this round. We had a whirlwind weekend of graduation ceremonies, one in Peoria and one in Lawrence. We stayed at a total of three hotels--Holiday Inn Express, Hampton Inn and Marriott. Marriott was twice the cost of the other two and was easily the worst of the three. First off, we could check in at the other places at 3;00 p.m. Not the Marriot, 4:00. If that wasn't bad enough, they weren't ready for us at that time; they told us 5:00. Great, we had a 5:00 dinner reservation. The shower was a tub shower, which is never as nice as a walk-in. The other two places had very nice showers. Heck, the Marriott's bathroom door cleared the toilet by less than an inch, so it was a bit tight in the area. Bathrooms, Marriott, third place. Breakfast? The other two started at 6:00, the Marriott at 6:30. Well, that's what they said. Nothing was served until 6:45. Once again, when comparing the three places we stayed, Marriott's breakfast was sorely lacking in quality and choices. Isn't Marriott supposed to be an upper tier kinda place? The price sure indicated it should have been. They were beaten out by the likes of Holiday Inn Express and Hampton Inn. How the mighty have fallen.

Hotel appeared to be very nice however there was dog hair all over. Spoke to front desk who advised me they were sold out and I had used points so she couldn’t help. I called the manager the next business day who said he would refund my points but never did. Do not stAy at this hotel.

This Lawrence, Kansas Marriott TownePlace Suites is an overpriced nightmare. This Marriott is a hotel at which their apocryphal three-star experience grows more distant with each attempt you make at attaining it. The Wifi at this Marriott doesn't work, their phones can't reach anyone at the front desk or any hotel operator, and you will be kept awake late into the night by loud partying and doors slamming. The hallways of this Marriott reek of booze, sweat, and smoke. If you manage to reach anyone who works at the hotel after an hour of contact attempts via hotel phone, Marriott hotlines, and online chats with third-party travel sites, Marriott may move you to a smaller room in which no one has stayed since the Clinton administration, with a broken TV, stale air, and a slick layer of grease upon every surface. This Lawrence, Kansas Marriott will downgrade you while exhausting you, until you are a worn-out shadow of the person you once were, hundreds of dollars poorer. Abandon hope, all ye who book the Marriott TownePlace Suites in Lawrence, Kansas.

The hotel has clearly fallen due to poor management over the past few years. The reasons are dangerously torn (exposed carpet tack ***** that my wife stepped on) and dirty carpet in our room, breakfast being served at 8:30 instead of 6:30 a.m. while the manager was on site at 7:00, and a non-responsive manager (Brian). We are strongly considering taking our business elsewhere. Oh, and what's with the front desk clerk having her dog there behind the counter?

The location is excellent, downtown a block off of Mass street, so walking to everything is very easy. The hotel is a standard TownePlace, rooms are as expected. Breakfast is the standard freebie, nothing good or bad. Parking is nice, it is a parking garage, and in the winter this has a lot of value in the midwest!
