We stayed here as it was the closest location to the Ark Encounter. This is a nice facility. Walking across the parking lot to the Ark Encounter was easy. The room was very nice and clean. We did have a little issue getting the fridge in the room working. Still not sure it was fully functional but it did manage to cool our Costco branded bottled water. Parking was cramped. It was always a roll of the dice to see if you would have a space or one that was close to an entrance. At least the room card could open other exterior doors that were locked for safety. Good call on keeping all entrances other than the main locked. It was neat to see my name being welcomed on the room TV when we entered the room. The hotel was very busy. Breakfast was included and it was obvious that the hotel was busy with all the people hitting the breakfast buffet. The two days we were there, items ran out on the buffet and we had to wait for them to be refilled. Lines could get a little long if you hit the buffet or were waiting for something to be filled. Tables got slopped up from the frequent traffic of people using them and seating was at a premium during breakfast depending on when you hit the buffet. Do not get me wrong, the staff were on top of the morning rush but it is hard to keep up with it. At no point though did I feel I was getting inconvenienced or held up though. I just wanted to mention that you should budget an adequate amount of time for the buffet.

The stay was great for the family. The only thing that would've been nice is if the room had more light throughout the room and another tv.

The staff was great. Rooms are adequate but no frills. Sliding “barn door” for bathroom yields limited privacy. Breakfast workers did a great job. Food area needs to reorganized, as it doesn’t flow well with large groups. Price of stay is significantly inflated for quality of facility. On this trip, we stayed at Embassy Suites in Bowling Green for considerably less money, and had a much better experience.

Great location to the Ark Encounter, good hotel, but absolutely terrible service. We stayed for 4 nights, and our room was never cleaned. We had to ask for towels and our trash emptied and 3 out of 4 days even that was not done. Communication between staff was very lacking.

I was disappointed in this hotel. Had to go to desk and ask for shampoo right after checking in. There were 4 of us in a room no extra toilet paper and roll was not new so ran out. I understand them saving money and not cleaning a room on a 2 night stay, but they could check it and empty trash can if needed. One main reason for staying at this hotel was the indoor pool, however the water was so cold we could not get in.
