Tried this hotel twice now and never again! Extremely rude staff that seems they can’t be bothered with even checking you in. This last time traveled 7 hours and they didn’t have our room ready which is ridiculous to start with. Expedia tried calling them and they dodged them, came back an hour later and room still not ready so we were like this is ridiculous as we need a place to stay and we’re exhausted. Staff still rude and unhelpful. Expedia tried again to get manager and couldn’t. They had to send five yea five emails to property and after all that they refused to give us our money back when we didn’t even stay the night there! Just ridiculous ! Do yourself a favor and stay elsewhere where the staff isn’t rude!
We have been staying here the last 2 years for Ky football games and the customer service has always been impeccable. This past weekend I received a text from the about an hour after checking out that I had left a Yeti & phone charger in the room and they would be happy to hold until the next trip or mail to me. They could have easily just put it in lost & found or just taken it but they went out of their way for us. Highly recommend.
We drove a long way to adopt a doggy from Lexington's Woodstock Animal rescue nearby. We wanted to rest & get to know Bam Bam (Google "Bam Bam is a winner" to see him & read his triumphant story).
Our spacious "Garden Room" was large, clean and attractive.
The property appears to be a well-renuvated, stylish older construction and its outdoor areas gave me almost a Key West outdoor entertaining vibe.
Nice place; highly recommend 👌
We were met by Martha, the GM, when we arrived and were checked on for all of our four night stay. She is the most attentive hotel manager I have ever encountered! Superb!!
I loved the restaurant. The food is outstanding. Bar area is a great atmosphere and they even had live music! Staff was wonderful. They delivered a coffee pot to room practically before I even got up there. The room itself is really nothing special at all though. Didn’t care for room. It needed some work and better decor.
This was such a surprising find in Downtown Lexington!The front of the building is a restaurant where you check in at and the back half is the actual hotel rooms( located through a locked keypad weighted door ). The room was nicely decorated, clean, full amenities and spacious.
