Exceptional!
The place looked exactly like the pictures online. Once inside, literally all you might need was there, from linens, to cooking utensils, to paper products, to restaurant suggestions, etc. This owner thought of everything! We will definitely stay here again.

A great way to pretend to be townies again
It’s been years since we’ve been back to Manhattan and we had a great time! The house was clean, the location was excellent and everything was painless. It might be worth noting that next door is the funeral home and currently there is an incinerator on a trailer in the parking lot, which might be disconcerting for some, specifically my young children who had lots of question about it. (No fault to the house, just something to keep in mind with this location)

ISU Basketball
We were in town to attend KState women’s basketball game. We LOVED the house. The little extra touches, I. e. Silk flowers in the rooms; monogrammed “TH”in the house; as well as the super soft white mink like blankets. We would only have one suggestion as two senior citizens a railing going up the front steps would have been appreciated.

Great location and host!
Loved our time in Manhattan for New Year’s Eve with family. Close enough to walk to Aggieville Apple drop and when I forgot my makeup bag, Mary Ellen and her cleaning staff made sure I had it before leaving town! Will definitely stay here again.

Great Property!
The property was very clean and the check in/out process and communication with the owner was very smooth. The location was near many shops and restaurants as well as being across the street from a nice park for morning walks. I would definitely recommend it and we will be back again when visiting Manhattan.

Graduation Stay
Really nice, clean! Easy access with the keyless entry. Plenty of parking close to property. Walking distance of Aggieville. Only complaint is small pillows on king size bed and really cold tile in the bathroom.

We needed a nice place to stay that gave us more space than typical hotel rooms. This was a great option that we found. Good location and easy parking too.

K-state visit
One of the best VRBOs we’ve stayed in. Everything in the home is thoughtfully prepared for travelers to have a relaxing stay. And then I read what the owners did to renovate the building. Simply incredible! Bookmark this place for your next visit to K-state, you won’t be disappointed!
