Easy check-in. Easy $50 cash deposit returned after checking out. Good location to get to Kentucky Kingdom and the Mega Caverns. The bed was fine. The shower worked great. Room was very clean. Air conditioning also worked great.
The hotel is needing an update. It is ok to sleep at for a short bit, but I didn't stay two full nights I only stayed 1.5 nights and went home early.

Disliked: Amenities
it's the minimum for the $$ in the area basically. & you will encounter all walks of life there take it how you will. I probably wouldn't bring going kids here to stay if I could help 8t
A few positive points: the staff let me check in early and the property wasn't too noisy. One of the negatives: the beds were more like torture devices than beds.
Work has now brought me to Louisville. I’ve stayed at a few Motels to date and this Red Roof Inn hands down is the best. There isn’t a lot of Food Ootions, a Waffle House directly in front of the Building. Cabke T.V. & Internet were great. The Room had a Coffee Maker, big plus for me. Some Rooms have Microwave & Refrigerator (book early). Clean, quiet, comfortable and the two Gentleman that checked me in were very helpful.
Front desk staff was excellent. The room however was slightly disappointing. No fridge or microwave and only one plug in worked for me in the whole room. Air was good and cold. Tv was aggravating it wasn’t cable.
