Loved the Loft!
We walked in and were amazed at the size of the place! Our 23 and 27 year-old daughters thought, party-pad! Not the right occasion, but yeah, fun can be had there. Very spacious, clean, well-apppointed, nice outdoor deck. Had previously stayed at the Cyrus in Topeka, exceedingly better than 2 hotel rooms downtown. Thanks for sharing your place with us, Melanie!

Loved the Loft
We were in Topeka for a short stay to visit family and the Loft was perfect! Right in downtown, close to many good restaurants and bars. We had our 2 adult children (24 and 20) with us and the sleeping areas worked out great and we were all able to hang out together and enjoy some pool and ping pong. So much better than having separate rooms for everyone at a hotel! The space is HUGE but still comfortable and inviting.
