About this property
Quiet, private, and fully remodeled. Minutes from KU and Mass
This newly remodeled studio offers a calm, comfortable stay within walking distance of the University of Kansas and only a five-minute drive to downtown Lawrence. While the entrance is near an active road, the studio itself is tucked away and surprisingly quiet once inside, creating a peaceful space to relax and unwind.
The interior is bright, clean, and intentionally designed with stylish details throughout. The open layout makes the space feel airy and comfortable, whether you’re preparing a meal, enjoying a glass of wine, or settling in for a quiet evening. The kitchen is fully stocked and features brand-new appliances and a butcher block countertop, making it easy to cook simple meals or enjoy takeout from nearby restaurants.
The living area includes a comfortable sofa and a large smart TV, perfect for watching your favorite shows after a day exploring Lawrence. High-speed WiFi is included for streaming or remote work.
The sleeping area features a comfortable bed designed for restful nights, and the bathroom includes a warm shower, plush towels, and complimentary toiletries to help you feel at ease during your stay. A washer and dryer are available for guest use, making this studio convenient for longer visits.
Guests enjoy keyless entry for a smooth, self check-in experience, along with private parking located just steps from the unit. While the property is close to city activity, the interior remains quiet and well insulated, offering a sense of privacy that’s rare this close to campus and downtown.
This studio is ideal for solo travelers, couples, or guests looking for a quiet, relaxing place to stay while remaining close to the University of Kansas, Mass Street, and local attractions. The home is professionally cleaned before every stay and prepared to look exactly like the photos, so you can arrive with confidence.
Guests have full, private access to the studio. This is a self-service stay, allowing for privacy and independence, while support is available through the platform if questions come up before or during your visit.
If you’re looking for a clean, peaceful, and well-located studio near KU and downtown Lawrence, this space offers a comfortable and stress-free home base.

Whether you’re here for a short getaway, a KU game, or just passing through Lawrence, I want your stay to feel effortless, comfortable, and memorable.
Why they chose this property
The Iowa Street location is one of the most convenient spots in Lawrence. You’re minutes from the University of Kansas campus, downtown Mass Street’s restaurants and shops, and quick highway access if you’re coming from Kansas City or Topeka. The neighborhood is peaceful and safe, but close enough to everything that you’ll never feel far from the action.
What makes this property unique
This cozy studio is designed with simplicity and comfort in mind. You’ll find thoughtful touches like a fully stocked kitchen, fast Wi-Fi, and a comfortable bed to unwind after exploring. Guests also enjoy private parking and the ease of checking in on their own schedule. What sets it apart is the balance, it’s affordable, functional, and styled to feel like a little retreat in the heart of Lawrence.
