The folks at Check in were very polite and friendly. The fountain looks a bit dated. Room was adequate. The breakfast was acceptable. It served a place to sleep for the night. Convenient for visiting Buffalo Trace Distillery. No major complaints.

Rooms are clean, breakfast is great. 5 minute walk to downtown nightlife. My only complaint is that our beds felt worn out. It’s time to replace those mattresses. I’d stay again though.

Liked: Staff & service
Front desk associates were very pleasant and helpful! Having breakfast included was a plus, though the eggs seemed to be made from powdered, or non egg substitute (no flavor). The room needed to be upgraded...stained carpet; bathroom was not very clean, and it had a broken plug (which was promptly fixed when reported). Also, the flapper in the toilet needed to be replaced, and the fan was unpredictable. Coffee maker and refrigerator worked fine.
