Everything was good, hotel was nice, room comfortable and close to airport and exposition center. Only thing I didn’t like was the hotel shuttle woman that was working she was rude and when I needed to be dropped off closer to the west wing hall she said she couldn’t take me any closer. Which wasn’t true because every other hotel shuttle was dropping off in front of that wing. I had to walk from one end of the center in the freezing cold right before my competition. If you don’t want to work then you shouldn’t have a driving job.!!! Other hotel staff was nice but 12/14 whoever that lady was driving at 6am should be fired.

Our room on the 7th floor was really "meh"... no bottle of water in the room, slightly dirty bathroom, broken lamp, janky luggage rack, broken ice machine, broken hanger, AND you had to walk a really long distance from the front desk to an elevator bank on the back side of the hotel. If a guest checking in with a ton of luggage is told to walk to other side of the property, staff should offer to retrieve a luggage rack for the guest. The market was a nice convenience especially since it had a microwave and snacks. The other convenience was the proximity to the expo center for an event we were attending. But doubtful we will stay at this property again.

I didn’t get my room cleaned once during my 4 night stay. Upon complaining they came to my door with a garbage bag full of towels. The bath filled up with yellow water. The shuttle was unreliable and left us standing at convention center for 45 min. Spent $100 on Ubers. The bartenders were RUDE!!! “I can’t make anything on that menu. This is like a regular bar.”

Wonderful experience at Crowne Plaza in Louisville! Parking was great. The lobby was beautiful and clean. The staff was friendly and helpful. The room was very clean and tidy. The lamp in the room was broken and needed to be replaced, not glued. I did inform the staff. I wish the restaurant was open earlier than it did. We were very hungry when we arrived and there wasn’t anything around but a McDonalds. Overall, wonderful hotel and experience. :)

The heat did not work in our first room and the staff was so nice about it and immediately moved us to a new room. Having said that I provided a good rating because I did not want it to reflect on the blatant racism of the bartender at the bar later that evening. My husband and I went to the bar for a drink around 9:30. The bartender addressed me and asked if I would like a drink, totally disregarding my husband who was standing right next to me. It wasn't until I looked at him did she ask him what he would like and made his drink and pushed it towards him. The bartender then made my drink and said, "here you go miss, have a great evening and enjoy," again, disregarding my husband. My husband then slid his drink back to her and asked that she address him the same way she addressed me at which point she did.
