Radisson Hotel Louisville North
Advertised as 4 star......maybe half star. The room we reserved was on the 1st floor for disabled folks. The shower head was broken and had to be replaced. The property is NOT pet friendly. Family member kicked out without refund for her service dog. Room was bare. No alarm clock, bible, note pads ...
