Met My Needs

It was an overall positive experience. A nice area and not too far from I-65. No complications. A comfortable bed. Couch was a bit hard, but other than that, I would still recommend Horse Cave Motel.

Manager and family were very friendly. Room was clean and neat. Lots of storage if one needs it. Full fridge appreciated from people like us who still travel with a full cooler that needs ice refrozen and food refrigerated. Very reasonable price. Felt safe in the area. Would stay here again.

Upon arrival, the room assigned had cat hair on the floor. When the air conditioning was turned on, it blew smoky, pet-dander air, which immediately affected my family's allergies. Management switched the rooms at my request, without too much opposition. The second room had less dander, but more dust/mildew, not sure which. My family and I stayed one night because it was so late, while my oldest daughter slept in our car in the parking lot. We checked out two days early and had to find another place to stay. There's NO WAY this place is 4.8 stars. Management did refund me one day. This place still offers smoking rooms, and residents who live there are in and out all night smoking with their pets, not leashed, on the main sidewalk. One resident's small dog was aggressively going for my teen. I would not recommend this location.

Cute little motel. It felt like stepping back in time, but with modern amenities. It was so quiet in our room. Did not hear a peek all night. And we were right beside the office. The door has an actual key, with an old style keychain. The owner was friendly and made sure everything was good for our stay. If you are wanting all the luxury of a modern motel/hotel, this is not it. But if you want something cute and cozy, and a welcoming stay. Keep this one in mind.
