Great place right next to Mass St

Nice, clean, cozy spot on the tailend of the student ghetto. Just a short walk from Mass St. Might be a bit rowdy if class is in session, but was nice and quiet over winter break. Host very friendly and responsive. Check in/check out was a breeze. Nice little mock fireplace provided cozy vibes with the snow outside.

KU visit and basketball game

What a perfect place to stay for the weekend, location was great. Just one comment, you may want to take a look at the kitchen table it was very wobbly (we tried to tighten the legs, but it appeared the screws were stripped). Just need probably 2 new screws. We would totally stay here again - location and size of the home for my group was perfect.

Nice place

Overall this was a nice little place to stay. It was comfortable for me as a smaller person but most of the furniture was not big enough to be comfortable for my brother who is 6'3/250. It could also definitely use some more blankets.

Wonderful Stay

My 9 year old daughter and I drove up from Mesa, AZ to visit my dad for a few days. This was the perfect little spot for her and I to have a few relaxing girls evenings. The place was clean and comfortable. The neighborhood was safe with many fun spots to get food or have door dash deliver. We will be using this groups spots again for sure!

Cozy and Chic was perfect.

The location was perfect for us. It is close to Mass Street, close to campus, and close to our daughter. We were able to walk to campus. Inside, Cozy and Chic had everything we needed for our 5 day stay. The kitchen was well appointed and the washer and dryer was a plus. The beds were comfortable and parking was easy. We will be back for sure.
