Brickside Beds

HeidiRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago

What a marvelous stay we had at the lovely Brickside Beds AirBnB! Christine spoiled us with sweet treats and provisions ample for a week when we were only staying two nights. She has exquisite taste and beautifully blends charming antiques with modern conveniences, soft beds, and warm family-friendly living room, dining room, and kitchen settings. Her fenced and cleverly landscaped backyard is a haven, and our dogs were thrilled to have a little bit of liberty while we stayed in her quiet, serene abode. Swinging on the front porch swing with glasses of wine in the early evening while listening to the sounds of the cheerful neighborhood was soul-quenching. And having ready access to the Flint Hills and the beautiful trails of the Tall Grass Prairie National Preserve made it the perfect place for a mini-vacation. We’ll be back!.

I stayed here for the Unbound 200 race. The location is great - less than 1 mile to the start/finish downtown Emporia. Every person at Sean's place was participating at Unbound as well - everyone was quite and respectful...and rode bikes too! Sean was a great host, lots of refrigerator space, clean showers, clothes washing ect.

The Artists Abode

JonathanRating, 5 stars3 days ago

My cousin and I stayed for two nights in June. The air conditioning was so refreshing and the bedding was light and comfortable, so we didn't sweat. We both agreed that the beds were one of the best parts of the stay .. !... I don't know what kind of memory foam they used, but I want to know so I can use it for my own bed! The creative decor was a great catalyst for some fun conversations. A record player, snacks, lounge games and books... all of this and more gave a feeling of relaxation after our long days walking the Tall grass paths in the Flint Hills. Everything was clean and welcoming. I highly recommend chosing this for your stay!

The 210 Loft

MissyRating, 5 stars4 days ago

I’ve given a five star review because this was a fantastic place to stay in Emporia and we had a great time while we were there. Unfortunately the host was not available or reachable at the check in time we had agreed upon a week prior, and that 25 minute delay was stressful because we needed to be somewhere. But the beauty, size, and comfort of the apartment outweighed anything negative, and we would certainly stay again.
