The property overall was nice and clean, nice breakfast bar and close to the areas I needed to be near, but it was down near the UK Campus and Hospital, so traffic was terrible in that area. The guest room I stayed in was listed as a suite, but it was really an Executive room at best and had low water pressure in the bathroom sink.

The hotel was ok but the air conditioner was either too cold or it was too hot. The bathroom had no fan or ventilation at all which having a disability where i have a colonosopy bag is not good. My allergies were really bad as well. The service was great though.
