How many people can you stuff in a lobby and how loud can it get? You'll find out! Especially if there are sports competitions in town. I'd cringe walking through the crowded space, food was machine snacks and other mediocre fair. There is a swimming pool. Anywhere decent to eat that's not a chain is a bit of a drive. It is convenient to Churchill Downs.

The property itself was very clean and well kempt. At check-in time with multiple events happening, they had one person at the front desk. There seems to be no unaccompanied minor policy in place, causing many issues with screaming, banging on doors, playing in elevators, etc. We were woke up right before midnight to teenagers kicking our door and screaming in the halls. I called the front desk from the room three times with no answer. Once I called from my personal phone, they answered almost immediately. Security was overwhelmed. (One security guard working) We saw the guard as we were walking to our vehicle just after midnight. He was running more masked minors out of the parking lot. Would not stay here again, nor recommend, to anyone.

Convenient location near the airport—perfect for an early flight. The hotel offers plenty of parking and a park-and-fly option, which is a big plus. Their shuttle runs frequently, making airport transfers smooth and hassle-free. Staff were helpful and professional throughout our stay. The rooms were clean and the beds very comfortable. The only issue we encountered was that both of our rooms were missing toilet paper rolls—likely an oversight by housekeeping, but worth noting.

Only one night. Excellent. Excellent shuttle service. Available time and very near the airport.. I couldn’t find your phone number to Book directly with you. I ended up paying $40 more with hotel.com Please make your website friendly to find you and your phone number. Breakfast should have been included for the price payed. I took a shower around midnight and the water was warm not hot.
