Springhill Suites by Marriott Louisville Airport

8/10 Good

"Very quiet room. My only complaint is the surprisingly very uncomfortable bed! I felt like I was sleeping on a cement block for 4 days"

Tru by Hilton Louisville Airport

10/10 Excellent

"I'm not a heavy traveler, but after my last 4 hotel experiences, Tru being the most recent, I decided if there's EVER a Tru nearby, that's going to be my choice. I realize there are thousands of options, and I'm probably the least qualified to opine on them, but after 3 awful experiences at hotels that should've been nice (and cost the same or more), Tru was SUCH a breath of fresh air. It was so clean, well-maintained, nice, warm, welcoming foyer that doubled as sort of a "cafe" with lots of personal space for breakfast (which was AMAZING)... And on and on. Just so good. Can't wait to go on another trip so I can stay at another Tru!"
