Everything was great other than couldn’t use the gym. Even the front desk couldn’t get us in with his master key. Rooms are nice. Great location to Mammoth. Pool is small but perfect for the kids.

It is not the best area honestly and there was yelling and slamming doors and banging on the walls ALL night and someone put raw chicken in the trash by the elevator and it started smelling. Told staff when we checked out.

Pros- property was clean, staff was friendly and tried to be helpful, good parking. Cons- Shower was almost warm and turned cold within several minutes. Could hear everything from neighbors in hallway, elevator dinging, to people walking around above my room. Upstairs someone was being excessively loud, I asked front desk if I could move to another room. Front desk staff called management who stated their policy does not allow room changes, despite hotel being anywhere near capacity (maybe 10 cars in parking lot). Management told woman at front desk (who was the ONLY person working at the entire hotel) to go upstairs and tell the room to be quiet. Needless to say this was ineffective and I did not get any sleep. Not customer focused, will never stay again

Room was clean, but when we tried to check in after 4 p.m. (which is after the check in time) they did not have our room ready. The keys were all messed up, so we had to get a new key the next day. The shower was luke warm, and you had to go to the front desk to get in the pool. The breakfast was waffles, yogurt and cereal, and that was it. It was cheap, so there is that.

Worst experience ever. There were visible stains on the bed cover. The shower had no hot water and no curtain, making it impossible to shower. Despite all these issues and the fact that multiple rooms were clearly available, the staff still cannot change a room since they were not authorized by management to move guests under any circumstances, and when asked to speak with management, no manager ever showed up. This is a complete failure of basic hospitality standards and they refused to give refund.

The room was clean and that’s the only nice thing I have to say. There is nothing but a sheer over the window and all night a blue light from outside lit up our room. In addition, it’s the middle of December and we had to turn the air on because the room was uncomfortably hot. Didn’t sleep at all. Horrible.

The room had serious dust bunnies from the bathroom to behind the easy chair by the window. The worst part was waking up in the morning and being unable to shower because the water was TOO HOT. There was no cold water at all! There was no healthy food offered at the breakfast buffet except for bruised apples. Disappointing if you are gluten free. But the bed was comfortable!

This property is so clean, you will think it is brand new. That is the main reason for such high ratings. It is right off of the interstate, within reasonable distance to Mammoth Cave NP, and only a mile from the quaint little downtown of Cave City. The pool was very small, which was pointed out by the desk clerk. There IS NO HOT TUB. Expedia shows that it has a hot tub. The fitness center only had 3 pieces of equipment. When I thought it was new, I figured they were just saving up to be able to afford more. Nice refreshing water in the fitness room. Here's the kicker, the lady working the breakfast area had a bad cough, very ill. This really concerned me. Also, the guy who did the check-in, told me there is no hotel in the world that will give you a better rate than you can get online. I know this is not true, because other Choice hotels have given me a better rate. That is why I waited until I got there to check the price. Not only did he tell me that, but I heard him tell 2 other parties they could get a better rate online. He really was putting down this hotel. Telling me all they had for breakfast was cereal, cereal and cereal. Not true, they also had waffles and yogurt. He was really pumping up the Hampton Inn, which it sounded like was owned by the same people because he said he worked there and at another hotel too. The reason I gave the staff 3 stars, is because of the gentleman who checked us out in the morning. He was super nice, and super helpful!
