Louisville Holiday Inn
Room was very nice and comfortable. Check-in was okay with the exception of the desk clerk. VERY unfriendly. The two young men on the front desk that evening were exceptionally friendly and helpful.
Complimentary breakfast was very good.

Safe & Clean... pay for breakfast elsewhere.
This hotel would have 5 stars from me if not for the breakfast. The turkey sausage and eggs I literally spit out they tasted so bad, and the coffee if you can call it that was basically water. That being said, the hotel was super clean, beds were very comfy, safe, and in a great location especially if you are going to a UofL football game! Would stay here again and just go out to breakfast which we ended up doing anyways!

Worst Holiday Inn I’ve ever stayed at, place is disgusting, especially for the price. Proximity to the Kentucky Expo center and Louisville football stadium are good, but we didn’t even stay the night with the poor condition of the room.

Room was halfway cleaned. Toilet was barely flushing
Bathroom floor tiles were all loose.
Ice bucket had used wet bag inside.
Had chalk/powder hand prints allover the room surfaces.
Lighting is so dim you hardly see anything.
Nice property but poorly maintained
Non smoke rooms but have a funny smell they need to deodorize the rooms at least before you check in
