The Hotel was very clean .The staff was very friendly. However, the surrounding area had a lot of crazy drivers. Also, the bathroom door in the room was heavily scratched up and did not lock.

Louisville Holiday Inn
Room was very nice and comfortable. Check-in was okay with the exception of the desk clerk. VERY unfriendly. The two young men on the front desk that evening were exceptionally friendly and helpful.
Complimentary breakfast was very good.

Mostly great
The hotel is very clean and enjoyable our check in person Earnest and he was very nice the only problem we had we was told a complimentary breakfast and the next day we found out it was a 12.95 buffet which we did not know until they gave us the bill we would have not eaten there. They should at least have a sign up before you go into the restaurant area letting people know there is a charge for the breakfast but like I said we even ask the night before and said they was not going to start charging until the next week

Very dated, stains on carpet in teh room and common areas. The attached resturant was awful. We had buffalo wings They were microwaved I guessing with ice on them because the plate had an !/4" water on it and the chicken was raw in the center. Work out room was not much better Water cooler with missing bottle of water attached and it looked like it had been that way from a long time. In the lobby they had a container of ice water and the the nozzle was broken on it. Beside it was coffee creamer and sugar but no coffee container
