Under new management. Nice place but having problems with the door key cards but the maintenance man had to let me into my room. Then I felt like I couldn’t leave.

Great location, hotel needs some work

We boomed the The Oread based on recommendations from friends who had visited. It is conveniently located on the KU campus and is a picturesque building. However, the rooms are dark, sparsely furnished, and sterile. Lighting, carpet, some wall decor, and comfortable seating in the rooms would help. The staff was friendly and helpful. Our heat/ac unit was very loud when we got to our room, and Esperanca at the front desk was responsive and sent Engineering to address it. When the unit could not be promptly fixed, we switched rooms. Overall, there seemed to be some deferred maintenance. In addition to the heat/ac issue in our first room, the front automatic doors to the lobby were out of service, the tv remote and ice machine on our floor didn’t work properly. We were also disappointed to find the restaurant and bar were both closed on the day of our arrival. It is also annoying that guests are charged an extra $25 to park, when there isn’t an alternative to the hotel garage, given their location on campus. We likely would stay elsewhere, if we return to KU/Lawrence.

They messed up our reservation. I was charged for various things that I did not purchase. I was charged twice for parking. And the Manager Jonathon banged on my kids hotel room door. Woke up my small child and yelled at my teenage daughter when my room was directly next door. Then proceeded to tell me and my bf that we had an extra room that we didn’t pay for which we did not have and told us there was an “African American child” in the room. I or my boyfriend don’t have an “African American” child. He was rude and very condescending. He scared my kids and refused to take any responsibility for behaving that way in front of my kids.

For what I paid, I was very disappointed. The mini fridge needed to replaced when I arrived and my bed needed to be remade because it was very disheveled. I'd recommend looking into alternative options unless you want to pay around $300 for a very basic room with a view.

Unfortunately we were not notified that the hotel was under major construction, lobby freezing & no restaurant or bar available, entrance dirty & limited guests to a back room was unacceptable and we should have been warned and certainly not charged regular rate let alone a higher one, given the conditions; no supervisor or manager responded to our complaints at front desk, nor did Hilton reply to many texts and emails as well

Been traveling through all 50 states this year and trying to focus on visiting small towns and Lawrence was my selection for Kansas. Had a great day and the staff was very pleasant. Special thank you to Amy for recommending a few places to visit and where to eat while I was in this cute little town! Great location up on the hill right near the campus.

I will be contacting the management in the next day or two. We checked in at 4pm today. The hotel is under construction, which they don’t tell you ahead of time. We paid for a king terrace suite, but the A/C didn’t work, so they had to move us to a standard ling room, no sitting area/suite/terrace, etc. (things we paid for, but did not receive). Basically they downgraded us, because they couldn’t fix the a/c in room 221. So we paid an extra $80 for a larger room and didn’t get it. Poor experience so far, the front desk staff was not professional nor was she dressed appropriately. Additionally, they wanted to "get the air fixed” while we were in the room, instead of moving us to another room and the tech that supposedly came to look at the a/c in our room left our door propped open so when we came back from the lobby all of our stuff was open to the public, anyone on the floor could have taken anything in our room. The management and/or ownership needs to contact me, they have my email and phone number. You can do better!

The whole second floor smelled like sewer gas. Wife and kids got sick from the smell. Never again will we stay there again. Biggest waste of money, should have gotten a refund for that awful smell.
