Our room was clean and vibrant. Love all the fun colors and style. Parking was super convenient and easy. The place is connected to the Atomic Club so you will definitely hear the music outside on the weekends at night. So if you’re there to go out on Bardstown then this place is super convenient. But if you’re looking for something quieter this place probably isn’t for you.

I honestly can’t think bad about this hotel. I feel like the reviews are pretty accurate, but I also think if you are looking for a cute little convenient place, one coming to Louisville, especially for the price, this is perfect. Now I do recommend if you are staying for a weekend and do not like music or partying, it probably is not the place for you as it is in the back of a club that is part of the building, but it is also on a strip of large establishments. What if you are staying Monday through Thursday, it is so quiet, all the restaurants in the area are really nice. There’s a gas station on the corner for convenience of little essentials but the room itself is so aesthetically pleasing. parking is direct back, it says valet, but that’s so people don’t park there all in all, it was pretty quiet even during the week. I would love to stay on a weekend because it would be fun to watch extended my stay because it was so relaxing. Will be back. The customer service is out of this world and I love that it’s contactless

I really wanted to love this hotel because the location is perfect for me and the price point is exceptional for Louisville. Also, the bed is super comfortable and clean. The major issues I had were the cleanliness of the bathroom (hair and dirt on the floor) and the rug in the room needs to be cleaned or tossed, and there isn't much soundproofing so there was a fair amount of noise through the night. I would definitely not recommend for a weekend night and I'm still on the fence whether I will stay here again.

The property itself was cute and unique. But the room was not clean. There’s a big wad of gum in the rug as you get out of bed. The floors were really dirty. Especially the bathroom. The bathroom was not clean at all. Under sink, around toilet and shower were all nasty. Was given 1 wash cloth for 2 people and no hand towels. There were no extra blankets. Balcony area nice. Parking was ok. Bed was comfortable. Pillows were great. Walls are very thin or someone had their tv blaring.

Easy access to the room with a personal door code. Nice room, very vibrant and clean. Nice seating area just outside of room outdoors in front of the room as well as balcony area. Very good sized TV with plenty of apps for a variety of choices. Plenty of amenities in the area. Only downside is the room was advertised with a mini fridge but it did not have one.

Great choice! I would highly recommend this hotel option for anybody that wants to experience Louisville, from more of a local perspective. This is not your typical touristy spot. This is a great location for assimilating. With the community in the heart of old Louisville and a great district that seems to be thriving in cleanliness and walkable opportunities for people to get from one establishment to another great atmosphere. Love is abounding here

This is by far one of the best hotel experiences I have ever had in my life. I have been traveling around the United States for 30 plus years. And have never had a hotel with a code to get into the room. Instead of a front staff and I feel like this concept is revolutionary. And should be adapted widely amongst hotels in the future. It is a great concept. And i'm thankful for hotel hilo. There are plenty of walking points within very, very close range and a friendly neighborhood.Environment around. This seems to be a hidden gem.Check it out for yourself!

Room was clean. Shower pressure was great. Bed comfortable. Close to many spots in the area. Walkable. The only downfall for us was... It’s adjacent to a night club which played music so loudly until about 4am. If we were 20 years younger probably would have been great. But at 50 and driving 6 hours to get there all we wanted was a nice night of sleep.
Courtyard adjacent to hotel and nightclub. Literally two steps out of our door

The room and property was super cute and clean!! The locks for the doors were not the easiest to work and there was no staff to ask about them. It said there was parking available behind but if you leave once the club in front opens you lose that parking and have to park several blocks away. The club stays open and bumping until about 3-4am and the rooms are essentially part of the club as the yard of the rooms is the club. This makes it very hard to sleep since the rooms are made out of storage containers with not much sound barrier. Perfect place for young club goers to stay but not for those who like to sleep at night. Also, we had people at our front door fighting at about 2am. But like I said to begin with…maybe one of the cutest places I’ve ever stayed.

Very trendy. Zero amenities. Limited parking. No microwave in our room. Very, very cute/sheek. Very clean. Very hot shower. Despite reviews the nightclub is open on holiday Sundays and deafening. Other than that quiet. Great place for younger travelers. Not for kids.

The room was very comfortable and in a wonderful neighborhood with lots of restaurants and a safe walkable neifhborhood. The fridge was convenient but be aware there is no coffee pot, microwave, or hair dryer. Check-in worked great, no problems whatsoever. I was there during the week so the bar was closed and it was very quiet, but I can imagine it's noisy on the weekends. Would definitely stay here again.

This hotel was unique in that it didn't have a front desk, and a code was sent to me to access our room's keypad entry. The room was clean with a cool, unique decor, and the bed was comfortable. I knew by researching the hotel's surrounding area that there were nightclubs nearby. I just didn't realize that one of the nightclubs, the Atomic, was literally out the sliding door of our room. There was a metal barrier between the outside sitting area and the patio area of the Atomic Club. The club had a group of guys playing basketball well into the night. This vibe might be perfect for a younger person staying at the hotel, but it was not a great vibe for my husband and me. I'm so glad that we brought a fan to help drown out the noise.
