Terrific location to enjoy local artists, restaurants, and shopping all in walking distance. Quiet area during the week. Close proximity to KU! Enjoyed the spacious room with separate bedroom from living area.

We had a great stay! I really liked the "noise" machine in the bedroom. I think I'm going to have to get one of those!

Loved the hotel. So many good restaurants within walking distance. Only bad part was the mattress. It was so old and soft, it was very uncomfortable.

8/10 Very good

The room was very nice - clean and comfortable. The staff was helpful and cheerful. There was no coffee available in the morning in the room or lobby, which was disappointing.

It is a unique and beautiful hotel. The room was clean and comfortable. Did not get get good sleep due to old, noisy air conditioner. Every time it would come on, it was so loud that it would wake us up.

Split the Annex & the Main Location Entirely

So, we didn't know there was an "annex" / long-term stay area when booking on Hotels.com. I blame Hotels.com more for this. Anyways, the actual room we stayed at was 2+ blocks away from the hotel itself, there was no good parking nearby. REALLY didn't enjoy the walk back from 8th/Mass to our hotel room at 11pm from the concert.

NO coffee in the morning in the building???

I have stayed at Eldridge before so I had expectations it would be similar. First off they wanted to put me in an "annex" building off site. I did not even know there was such a thing so make sure you check your reservation. I ended up paying 35 more just to stay in the actual hotel. not cool. the hotel was not full so I am not sure why they did that. NO restaurant NOR coffee service in morning. NO hot water or coffee maker in room . I had to go to starbucks. Frankly i find that shocking for a 250.00 a night room. it seems like they have new cost cutting measures that make me just want to go to airbnb now. are you cutting costs so much that you can't put out a simple coffee urn and some cups??? it is the little things that you make you feel like you are appreciated and it just was missing from this experience. I wouodl say front desk staff were awesome but they don't make the coffee.

2/10 Poor

Booked thru Expedia and immediately after booking we realized the dates were incorrect. Called the front desk and they said to contact Expedia. We spent 45 minutes chatting and the virtual assistant or maybe it was a live operator but they said they would see what could be done. They tried once to contact the hotel, didn’t get an answer so I guess they just decided to decline to assist. I realize I made a mistake but mistakes happen. What would have been nice if the property offered some assistance and Expedia would do more than the bare minimum.
