Radisson Hotel Louisville North

10/10 Excellent

"The young lady at the desk, working 3rd shift I assume was awesome, above and beyond. Everything was top teir"

Hawthorn Suites by Wyndham Louisville East

10/10 Excellent

"I'm giving a top rating because I think it's deserved even though I could complain about a few things. We were there Christmas Eve and Christmas nights on the 4th floor in 424. The value to us was tremendous because it was one of the cheapest rooms near my family's gathering. There were a few odd quirks like most hotels, and the finishing touches weren't great. Noise was moderate and wifi was good. They either couldn't get much staffing for Christmas or lowered it on purpose, so the trash was overflowing on our floor and the breakfast buffet was below average. Lighting in the front room was oddly low. The door that separated the bedroom from all else had a glass pane that somehow amplified the front room lighting enough to wake others when someone went to the bathroom. Now that I think about it, I don't recall seeing any Christmas decorating? All that said, it was clean and comfortable and the few staff we encountered were polite and helpful. "
