Hawthorn Suites by Wyndham Louisville East
The spigot in the shower constantly dripped and made excessive noise constantly. Breakfast was very fresh and hot. The staff at the front desk was very friendly and helpful.

The room and area was great. The included breakfast with my booking was a joke.. the only restaurant that was open for the breakfast only had buffet so they did not honor our voucher
