Clean rooms and well maintained property. Facilities were well cared for and clean. Staff was friendly however we had to switch rooms due to our door not latching. When this happened they checked me out and had to check me back in then tried to charge me even though it was a prepaid booking. Dining options in the area were limited but comes with being a smaller town outside of metro-Louisville.
