We went to the bourbon festival and this was the only available hotel around that area. Unfortunately, they charged 5x over the nightly rate! (I'm assuming most hotels do that as well that weekend) It definitely wasn't worth the extremely high price per night.

I enjoyed this hotel largely because of the decor which was distillery focused. Unlike so many of the chain hotels, the decor represented the location. Also, breakfast was exceptional.
