The owners have done a really nice job creating the perfect place from which to explore Hays. Their attention to detail is impressive. The loft was extremely clean and comfortable, and the location was perfect...just a short walk to downtown.

Excellent Family Road Trip Stopover

We were taking a cross-country road trip, with a family of 4 (2 parents, 2 year old, 9 year old), and this was an excellent stopover on our way. The rooms were excellent, and the location was great for family -- just a few blocks from the nearest playground. Check-in instructions were straightforward and easy to follow, and the rooms were clean and well organized. We really enjoyed our stay in Hays, and would highly recommend!
