Holiday Inn Express & Suites Louisville Downtown by IHG
Girls trip. Stayed at various Holiday Inns the entire week. Holiday Inn was great, however, this one location in downtown Louiseville has much to be desired. Receptionist Vee was extremely rude. Food was terrible. Love Holiday Inn but would not recommend this location. .
