Shower ruined my experience
Pros:

Food good. Room terrible. Terrible lighting in the room. The wardrobes they provide are even darker so instead of putting clothes away, it all stayed in the suitcase because I cant see what im doing. No soap or body wash for shower. And the shower is a death trap. I feel lucky to be alive after my shower as opposed to getting killed in the shower.

The Elwood is my favorite hotel in Lexington
Pros:

I stay at the Elwood almost every time I visit Kentucky which is at least 3/4 times a year. The rooms are clean and comfortable. I love the king suite it's so nice. The gym is always clean. I love that there's a rowing machine. The bar serves up excellent cocktails and all the food I've eaten there is tasty. Breakfast in the summer with the white curtains billowing is so nice. Even though it's on a busy road the atmosphere whisks you away. The personnel there is always friendly and helpful. I've never had a bad experience.

Boutique feel, nice common spaces,restaurant.

The location had some of the same limitations of most chain hotels; not in a walkable neighborhood, despite < 2mi from downtown.

Clean, cute and comfortable. Would stay again.
Pros:

The room was clean, cute and comfortable. We only stayed one night, arriving late and leaving early, but we got a good night's sleep. The blinds darkened the room well and the bed was very comfortable and very little noise was heard outside our door or window.

Cons:

All was good.

Excellent value in a great location
Pros:

Great location and pretty property. The room was very spacious and the bed was very comfortable. The decor was modern and convenient. There was a pretty good restaurant on premises, although all of their draft beers were down the night we stayed. (Waiting on a part.)

Cons:

The sink is outside the bathroom and I wasn’t crazy about that, and even with extra window shades, light from the parking lot came into the windows at night.

Wonderful! Highly recommend to anyone staying in the Lexington area
Pros:

Very clean and friendly staff. Felt like more of a “boutique-y”style hotel compared to the big name hotels (that is a good thing).

Cons:

Continental breakfast would have been nice but that probably keeps the cost down.
