Interesting.
Picked this hotel last minute to visit the InLaws. No fridge or microwave but in the pictures they have a fridge and microwave. Heat wouldn’t blow enough air. Hair dryer didn’t work and worst of have they had “scheduled” water maintenance that we weren’t notified during booking or check-in! We saw a note on the elevators. It was supposed to last 10-5 which is long if you ask me but it ended up going until 7:30pm! Whatever happened with the water effected the breakfast the next day.

Excellent First Stay
Great stay! This was my first visit to this hotel. All the employees were friendly and helpful. The room was clean and spacious. The beds were quite comfortable and I slept well on them. Will stay here again if I return to Bowling Green.
