“Highly recommended stay for one or more night.”
Great central location with supermarket opposite. Susan was super friendly and let me use her laundry and sunny clothes line. Best bed all trip by far. Huge bathroom and bedroom. Kitchenette an added bonus. Ask for room number one if you need cooking facilities. Extremely clean and orderly. My husband could lock his bike in the shed.

Exceptionally clean. Friendly staff and spacious room. You knew the crockery would be clean as Susan puts it all through the dishwasher so no need to do dishes

“A little gem for those looking for a comfortable stay in Lawrence.”
Jafa‘s Motel in Lawrence is a little gem. The main room is well laid out and very spacious. The bathroom is en suite, spacious and has a well selected assortment of commodities. Bed is big with a comfortable mattress. We loved the terrace with the table and chairs around which we could eat and drink in comfort. The hanging chair was a joy to languish in. The motel is just a few minutes walk to the local museum which is well recommended.
