Property was fine for an overnight stay but someone near us was really loud most of the night. It was difficult to sleep with them jumping around. It took the water in the shower a long time to heat up and once it did it was not consistent. Bed was comfortable but the pillows were not.

Staff was very helpful especially a young lady named Christy...a very hard worker that went out of her way to accommodate us. Room was a little small but nice, bath towels and washcloths could use upgrading...but good overall experience. We plan to return in the future.

This was a great stay! The hotel is newer, and super close to Rupp Arena. The room was really clean, and had everything we needed. There was a small kitchen with a full-sized fridge, and a comfy seat that had a moving tray to eat on that was helpful. There's a Slim Chickens next door, so that was handy. Prices were great on the rooms.

We were impressed with the cleanliness of the hotel. The sitting area on main floor was very nice. There was a nice grill area outside with a firepit to enjoy the evenings. .The room was very nice and having the frigerator and stove would have been perfect to cook if you were staying longer. I want to especially say that Shannon at the front desk was very helpful and never seemed to be bothered by any questions that was asked! She was definitely one of the beat front staff people we have come across. Kidos to her. All of the staff was very nice and helpful. We will definitely stay again.
