10/10 Excellent
"My flight got cancelled at Louisville airport, Delta service agent suggested I stay at the Crown Plaza, because their restaurant was still open (9:30 PM). Checked in with no problem, headed for the restaurant, tired of airport food, skipping dinner to try standby on different flights. Sat down ordered my dinner, came fast even at this late hour, nice hot & delicious. Went to my very clean room, two queen beds in a large area, & large bathroom. I was plenty surprised to see a Keurig coffee maker and refrigerator. Got up at 3 AM to get to TSA at 4 AM, checked out, and got a ride on their shuttle, (24 hours operation). Best part of my stay in Louisville all week. The staff was very helpful and went out if their way to accommodate me."

"The lobby, bar and dining room were amazingly beautiful. The staff was friendly and there was a pleasant atmosphere in the lobby. Although the rooms were modernized, the television was very small, and the overall ambiance was a bit outdated."
