8/10 Good

"Hotel had a whole European vibe. Rooms were small with virtually no storage. But there was a pool table and some other things that had people focused on the lobby rather than their rooms. Not my style. Clean. Great staff."

Home2 Suites by Hilton Louisville Airport/Expo Center, KY

8/10 Good

"This was a nice hotel and within in driving distances of everything. The breakfast was awesome. Wide variety of items and good. Only thing we didn’t like was the front desk staff night and day, weren’t very welcoming and kinda rude. No smiles, no hello, none of that. My husband asked them where the downstairs bathroom was during breakfast and one of the staff sighed, rolled their eyes and told him. Other than that we loved it!"
