Cleanliness
7.5
Majority of reviews explicitly note rooms as clean and immaculate, though a few report issues (stained bathtub, scratches, and one report of roaches), yielding mixed-but-leaning-positive cleanliness.
Service
6.8
Service is mixed: several mentions of friendly, eager staff and helpful housekeeping, contrasted with multiple reports of rude or unprofessional behavior (front desk asleep, argumentative/owner attitude).
Location
8.5
Consistently praised location (near Expo Center, Churchill Downs, easy interstate access); proximity to events and downtown is a clear strength in many reviews.
Room Quality
6.9
Rooms are described as generally acceptable or nice in some reviews, but there are recurring complaints about dated bathrooms, stained tub, poor bedding, AC/TV/phone malfunctions and other wear.
Amenities
6.8
On-site laundry (washer/dryer) and DirecTV are positives, but lack of expected motel amenities (no pool or exercise room) and some complaints about deposits reduce the score.
Value for Money
7.3
Multiple reviewers call it a good value or good for the money, while a few note efficiency or policy issues; overall perceived as acceptable budget value.
Food and Beverage
6.5
Breakfast is routinely described as basic (muffins, cereal, fruit) and notably missing protein/eggs for some guests; a few positive notes (muffins, acceptable breakfast) but overall below average.
Overall Experience
7.3
Overall sentiment is mixed: many reviewers would stay again and cite cleanliness and location, but several strong negative experiences (service attitude, pests, facility issues) lead to a middling overall impression.

Very nice and clean. A super location if your daily destination is the Expo Center.
Pros:

The management was very eager to support any special requests. The room was a very nice Super 8 room. Excellent TV channel lineup with DirecTV. Easy access to the highway system, that we used to our advantage, heading downtown (10 minutes) and to bourbon distilleries to the east of Louisville.

Cons:

I was missing things that were unlikely to be at this class motel - no exercise room or pool. The included buffet breakfast was devoid of eggs or breakfast protein, but it did have muffins, cereal, and fruit.

Terrible hotel
Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

From the start the tv and phone didn’t work in our room, when I went to front desk to tell them our phone didn’t work the front desk clerk was asleep , I hit the counter hard to wake him ., then we had a accident and just asked for a new sheet . Housekeeping didn’t speak English so she got owner who came to our room with an attitude . Kept saying there policy was changing sheets every other day , all we needed was one sheet he then said that was the policy if we didn’t like it he give us full refund . So with the attitude that was given to us we took him up on it,immediately I called another near by hotel and got a room .
Also found out that super 8 was all drug and prostitution place . Kinda explains things that happened there.
Never will I ever recommend this super 8 to anyone not even my wore enemy I wouldn’t recommend them ever , very rude and in professional.
