My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were comfortable, spacious, and clean, but the walls were a bit thin as I could hear noises from the neighboring room. The service was friendly overall, although there was a slight hiccup with my reservation. The location is convenient, being close to the highway, but a bit far from downtown. The dining options were varied, but some dishes were not up to par. The facilities were adequate for my needs.

I couldn't have been happier with my stay at this hotel. The rooms were incredible, with huge beds, on-demand TV, a jacuzzi, and even a seating area with a huge sofa. The staff was really friendly and just downright amazing to work with. Though the location was a little hard to get into-and-out, the hotel's proximity to Churchill Downs and the University of Louisville was a plus. The dining options were very good with lots of variety and choices, despite a minor hiccup with breakfast running out of food and coffee. Overall, a top-notch experience.
