Issues

Loved the hotel . My only complaint would be we paid for a balcony and because it had not been maintained , the door stuck and had a difficult time trying to open . Not to mention it had wa not locked .it could use some Wd40 and a good cleaning of the tracks . On top of that it wa hot and humid in the room . So I’d suggest cleaning the filters for a better airflow .

This was a lovely stay, however the room was not to the standards of cleanliness that it should have been upon arrival (visible dirt on the bed frame and on the counter). Additionally the condition of one of the peloton bikes were almost unridable and unsafe and the other one wouldn’t connect to the app. The bourbon butter cake was a real treat. There was also limited handicap parking for my father.

Horrible experience.

Food and beverage is a disaster. Bar service was inconsistent. Restaurant food was uneatable sent back hamburger twice it was so over cooked it was crumbling. Saturday am it took 15 min to be seated and then 20 min to be waited on. Short staffed and no MANAGER, Server said they don't come in early. This was the morning of the Derby and lots of people wanted to eat before the drive to Louisville. They got up and left. Saturday evening there was a fire alarm. Guest left the building however there was no sign of management anywhere to direct them where to assemble. Fire Department arrived and had to make their way through the crowd. Having been a GM of large hotels this is basic management to have a fire plan in place. Would not reccomend this property to anyone.

We chose to stay hear because they had a balcony. Paid for a room with a balcony. Room didn't have a balcony and refused to refund the difference. Both expedia and Marriott suck. Ruined our weekend.
