Mostly disappointing
Pros:

The beds and pillows were very comfortable. The room was large. Breakfast was very good on Sunday, and okay on Monday. Staff were friendly.

Cons:

VERY poorly kept grounds. Flowers were dying, grass was quite tall. It was cut the first evening we were there but huge clumps of cut grass were left all over and were still there when we checked out after two days. Nothing was trimmed or edged. Old cigarette butts were all over. Some were in piles on the stone and appeared to have been there a while.
In the room, there were dirty fingerprints all over the refrigerator, crumbs in the utensil drawer, and a single pubic hair in the bathroom sink. Several nickel-sized gouges had not been repaired in the drywall over the bed farthest from the door. The room had a very stale odor.

B+ Like staying in a small apartment.
Pros:

I liked having the suite with the kitchen. The proximity to Lexington is very good. The little market is a great idea, but having a Casey's next door (two of them) is even better. I didn't hear much noise from other patrons.

Cons:

I didn't like having to climb stairs with luggage. I felt something was off about the stairs in my room leading to the top bedroom and bathroom, as well as the landing at the top of the stairs. Some of the dishes and silverware were a bit dirty, so we washed everything before and after using it.

Comfortable and convenient with a plentiful, tasty breakfast.
Pros:

The rooms were comfortable although I wasn't expecting one of the rooms to be a loft; however, it was quiet in the loft. The double bedroom apartment style room was spacious.
The breakfast was well prepared and plentiful and there was an excellent Japanese restaurant just a 3-minute walk from the hotel where there are dozens and dozens of options for dinner,

Cons:

The hotel neon sign was not lit, so it took us several attempts to find the hotel; perhaps that can be fixed in the future for finding the hotel at night.

Breakfast is good, Staff is great, maintenance needs a little work.
Pros:

I wanted to give them a 3.5.

The suite was ok. The bed and pillows were comfortable. The staff is very nice. The breakfast was awesome. They do a nice job on breakfast. The coffee is good.

I posted pictures of the things that need to be fixed for the price you pay for the room.

The carpet had gum stuck in it by the door. (No pic). The access panel in the closet is in BAD shape and maintenance knows better. I can’t believe I am the only one saying anything about it. (See pic). The cabinets had visible dust on them. (See pic)

Would I stay here again? Yes. It is a very convenient location. They just need a maintenance supervisor and a housing supervisor to do “spot checks” to ensure cleanliness and aesthetics.

Ok
Pros:

Close to everything we wanted to do.

Cons:

Everyone in our party was pretty itchy. I’m thinking it was the laundry detergent.
