Property is on a convenient exit off Interstate 65 and away from most of the tourist activities, yet within one exit off the access road to Mammoth Cave National Park. Hotel staff were responsive, cordial and kept a very clean property.

This hotel is conveniently located close to the freeway (I-65) for visits to the Mammoth Cave National Park. The staff is very friendly. We had a small issue with out TV, which was immediately attended to. The breakfast was good. I would certainly stay here in the future and also tell my friends about this hotel. An electric super-charging facility is opening adjacent to the hotel; this will be a bonus.

The floor in the entry way was a little sticky and the tub spout came out of the wall if you bumped it. Also we could hear trucks going by on the highway all night. However the beds and bathroom were very clean and the staff was friendly and helpful.
