Crowne Plaza Louisville Airport Expo Ctr by IHG
The dinner was very good. I had no shower gel and had to wait an hour for check in due to only two people working at the desk.

Radisson Hotel Louisville North
The property is extremely outdated and poorly maintained. The buildings had a strong old, musty smell throughout, and there were visible leaks from the roof in multiple areas. The overall cleanliness of the property was disappointing. Everything felt dirty, dingy, and neglected.
