This is an excellent budget motel! The pool is warm, the bed is soft, the staff is friendly, and the cleanliness of the room was satisfactory! This is a great choice for a frugal stay to tour mammoth cave!
Room was clean. Places were close to walk to. Mexican restaurant next to hotel was fantastic. Liquor store and gas station was convenient and fully stocked.
Overall our stay was good! We came down for a funeral but stayed the weekend for the activities around Cave City! Breakfast didn’t have a huge selection (we were hoping for a waffle maker) but it was okay. The pool closes at 8pm which seems so odd, so make sure you check in with plenty of time if you’re wanting to swim the day you arrive!

Liked: Staff & service
Staff was good, breakfast was basic but good, the rooms could have been cleaner and upgrades are needed. Mattress was lumpy and old. For the price, it was fine for an overnight stay.
The staff was very helpful. The room was ok, but there were some mold in the shower. The breakfast options were very limited, so we decided to eat outside. It was a good option for a cheap hotel.
