Lawrence, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Cold stay but great location and communication

I really appreciated the size and amenities like washer and dryer of the unit, the fan above the bed that you cannot turn off was awful. I was so cold. I had to literally flip the switch for the entire bedroom in the fuse box just to rest comfortably at night. No way to get extra blankets or pillows like you would in a full hotel but, might be an option to consider providing.
