Outstanding Customer Service
We have been staying here the last 2 years for Ky football games and the customer service has always been impeccable. This past weekend I received a text from the about an hour after checking out that I had left a Yeti & phone charger in the room and they would be happy to hold until the next trip or mail to me. They could have easily just put it in lost & found or just taken it but they went out of their way for us. Highly recommend.

Clean, spacious & cute - just what we needed
We drove a long way to adopt a doggy from Lexington's Woodstock Animal rescue nearby. We wanted to rest & get to know Bam Bam (Google "Bam Bam is a winner" to see him & read his triumphant story). Our spacious "Garden Room" was large, clean and attractive. The property appears to be a well-renuvated, stylish older construction and its outdoor areas gave me almost a Key West outdoor entertaining vibe. Nice place; highly recommend 👌

I loved the restaurant. The food is outstanding. Bar area is a great atmosphere and they even had live music! Staff was wonderful. They delivered a coffee pot to room practically before I even got up there. The room itself is really nothing special at all though. Didn’t care for room. It needed some work and better decor.

This was such a surprising find in Downtown Lexington!The front of the building is a restaurant where you check in at and the back half is the actual hotel rooms( located through a locked keypad weighted door ). The room was nicely decorated, clean, full amenities and spacious.

Where to start-you have to drag your luggage through the only entry door only to find out you have to walk through the dining/bar area to a check in desk that looks more attached to the restaurant rather than the hotel. It looks like they remodeled with attention to the bar and restaurant area then realized they forgot they about hotel check ins. We travel with animals and they advertise as pet friendly, they are not. The night clerk is most unfriendly. We checked in late around 08:00 Pm then left to dine somewhere. Not much around that area for that. We were gone about an hour and a half. When we got back a member of the staff said they had complaints about our dogs barking. Apparently instead of calling us they went and knocked on the door. Well if you want to hear barking then knock on a door with dogs on the other side and their humans not present. We were then told our animals could not be in the hotel unless we were with them. Our dogs bark for a minute when we leave then are quiet unless something gets them going (like knocking on the door). I never figure out why they ran the only entry right through the middle of the restaurant/bar. So if you have to take the animals outside you have to walk them through people having a dining experience. Confusing. I paid for 2 nights but moved to the Hyatt Place rather than spend the 2nd night there even with no refund. Never have had a problem at the Hyatt through dozens of stays with my animals.
