Hotel has very dated furnishings and A/C. The view is beautiful but would not stay here again with the rates they charge. The town also has very limited dining options.
Limited choice and number of restaurants nearby - arrived on a Saturday evening and (because there were no tables for quite some time) ended up with a rotisserie chicken and salad in our room.
Excellent value. Our room was clean and comfortable. The beds and pillows were dreamy. The view of Fort Knox and the bridge were unbelievable. There were lots of great restaurants and convenience stores/grocery stores in walking distance. The staff was very friendly. The hotel is older, but very well maintained. My only word of his advice is to bring toiletries cause not much was provided. I will definitely come back.
The floor was uneven making it unsafe, beds were the worst , felt like a taco in it it was so soft, no place to put luggage because of bulky very 60s furniture. No breakfast for the price. Very outdated!! Only good thing was close to Ft Knox .
The rooms were clean and I felt safe there. However, the walls/floors are VERY THIN. Could hear everything - people walking in the rooms above us, people banging on doors across the hall. The rooms smelled musty, like someone hasn’t been in them in ages. Except it appeared that the Inn was full.
