CONVENIENT. COST-EFFECTIVE

Hotel is convenient to interstates and downtown Louisville restaurants, ballgames and conventions. Plus, it's a fraction of the competition's prices. Inexpensive surface parking is an added benefit, if you need to come and go. It is what it is. A basic motel that provides you the basics.

Perfect affordable place to stay! It is such a convenient location within walking distance of many nearby businesses, friendly staff, clean room with a BALCONY that I was not expecting. Noisy road is my only complaint, and that’s the price you pay for being so close to everything, so it’s worth it in my opinion! I would recommend staying here .

Can’t beat the location. Lots of people rev engines and drive like maniacs in the middle of the night, so, other than that it was a fantastic value and I would stay there every time I come to Louisville.

Good price, decent accommodations

Considering several other hotels around Econolodge were $300+ per night the weekend we stayed, we were thrilled to pay $80 per night. Of course we were not expecting a five star experience, but the bed was comfortable, it was clean, and the room was a decent size. The fridge and microwave were a nice bonus too. The staff were friendly. Parking price was reasonable. It’s literally attached to a liquor store, which could throw some people off, but there were no issues at all; it’s actually convenient to have a store so close. Area was walkable to restaurants and bars on Main. I’d stay here again considering the price.

Lots of stuff close by: shops, foods, highway access, etc. Dead insects and other debris around the room. Drains in the room need to be cleaned. Most surfaces had to be wiped down when we got there. Headboard of the bed is sticky from cleaning residue.
