Homeless people were camped out in the parking lot, 7 of them. Another group of homeless people were going through the dumpster and looking at people cars in the parking lot too. But the hotel itself was fine.

Absolutely the cleanest hotel that I have ever stayed at. Our reservation was made less than an hour of arrival and were able to get our requests filled. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. We had everything in the room that we needed and more. It felt like staying in a high end hotel without the price. If we are ever in Lexington, we will definitely stay at this location again.

Okay If No Other Options

Okay if you don't have much options. Good public transportation nearby if you're interested. Area around is little shady, so be careful. For whatever reason, they don't let you in their little reception. Rather, they let you go through a side door for check-in or other communication.
