Overall, it was a good experience. I chose this hotel though because I thought there was a bar. There is an attached to restaurant that was absolutely fantastic. But sitting at the bar in a standalone restaurant is just different than a hotel bar.
Convenient location for visiting Buffalo Trace and several dining/shopping options are within a close walking distance.
I don't really have anything bad to say about this place other than it's just okay. They did charge me at check in again even though I prepaid, but I was refunded a few days later and the emails they sent us to do a pre-check in and check out never worked. Also no vent in the small bathroom so it made the whole room hot if youre taking a hot shower.
The room looked lovely but we quickly discovered that it was not sound proof. We could hear conversations the couple staying above us had. Every time they flushed the toilet or used the sink, it sounded like pouring rain in our room. Plus, our AC quit in the middle of the night and we couldn’t reset it.
One night stay while traveling. The room was comfortable and quiet

The look of the interior was very high end looking. The lack of parking and the areas outside the hotel were run down and unfinished.

Air conditioning was any effective. It made lots of rattling noises and would not cool to our desired temperature of 68.
Room felt kind of dirty. Bugs in the tub. Toenail clippings in the corner of the bathroom.
Fantastic staff. Front desk was awesome. Walls are a bit thin but expected for that the property is. Only complaint was that the in room coffee amenities were not restocked while we we there for 2 nights.
