This is a classic "you get what you pay for" hotel. Nothing fancy, kind of rundown, but very affordable especially for this area. It's within easy walking distance to the KICC and a number of great restaurants. But there was a constant parade of motorcycles, monster trucks, and street racers all night long. Loudest hotel I ever stayed at. Had to sleep with headphones on.

Birthday trip to Louisville for Baseball stuff!

Our stay was a short weekend trip for my birthday to see the Louisville Slugger factory and catch a baseball game with the Bats! The hotel was a touch hard to find but that was due to Google maps recalibrating slowly, not the hotels fault in anyway. The room was nice and clean, bed was King size and very comfortable. They serve a breakfast but you could only eat in the designated area and not go back to the room with it which was fine. Their hotel ,their rules with no problem (even coffee,and drinks!) Parking lot was vey well lit , a little small but in the middle of downtown ,it's fine! Good situation as to resaturants and attractions , 5 minutes to Slugger Museum ,less than 10 minutes to Slugger Park! Decent pricing on room. All in all , a very good deal to me!

Wasn’t bad for the price but they never refunded the $147 they took out of my account twice nor the $100 deposit they took out. Such a language barrier that I can’t get them to understand they owe me money!
