Not necessarily a bad rate for a mediocre at best hotel.
Pros:

Beds were comfortable.

Cons:

It was old, tired, dirty…had a musty, mildew smell. Huge pile of dirt that looks like dryer lint rolled up on the floor right as you enter the side entrance. It was there when we got here and still there this morning. Asked for a crib to be in my room with reservation weeks ago. Asked if it was in the room when I got here and the clerk didn’t seem to have a clue that we reserved one and said they would have one delivered to the room, 45 minutes later no crib. I called the front desk and nobody answered so had to go to the front desk and request it again.

AVOID AT ALL COSTS
Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

Garbage's everywhere were overflowing. Front Entry was out of order. Smelled like Marijuana everywhere. My 8 year old daughter stepped in a pile of puke at the pool. Kids were running & yelling in the halls after midnight. Slamming doors. Our a/c made a loud clunky noise every time it kicked on. AVOID THIS PLACE! Walls are paper thin. We got no sleep. Place is a DUMP!

It’s okay, not great
Pros:

This was a beautiful hotel at one time I’m sure but it’s lacking maintenance. On our floor both ice machines didn’t work all week, had to take a trek every night to another floor. The hallways always smell like pot. The bed has to be the most uncomfortable on the planet, after a relaxing vacation we are both exhausted. Moving to a Hilton tonight for our last night of vacation to hopefully get some rest before driving home tomorrow. Toilet paper holder is broken. The maid refilled our coffee pods with all decaf. Who drinks that stuff ! On our first night we had to request our king bed be remade, someone made it with queen bedding turned sideways. Shower and tub were great tho.
IHG needs more staff. Also Debbie at the front counter needs to drop the military attitude and smile and be pleasant.

Great Stay!!!
Pros:

We had a great stay at the Louisville Airport Crowne Plaza. In town for a wedding and it couldn’t have worked out any better. Rooms were quiet, clean, and comfortable. Nice pool area too. We’ll be back! Thanks!
