Top Downtown Lawrence Hotel Reviews

StoneHill Lawrence, Trademark Collection by Wyndham

8/10 Good

"The hotel is showing wear, but the staff is outstanding. Several little things need to be repaired/replaced, but with a remodel pending those should be handled. I had curdled milk on two separate days! Both containers were well within the best by date. There's a problem somewhere! Missing flatware in our suite. Missing bulbs in the bathroom fixture. Bathroom sink faucet is hard to operate and should be replaced. It's time for the remodel. Can't express strongly enough the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff. Good folks doing their best with a deteriorating structure."
