Hotel is nice! The heat was off in our room when we got there. The thermostat read 57. We turned it up to 71 at 5 pm. By 8 am the next morning it had only gotten up to 67. Not sure why they turned the heat off but when it’s 3 outside the heat shouldn’t be off! Other than that the hotel was great. There is a $7 parking charge that is deducted from your security deposit.

Everything was great, clean facility, friendly staff, good breakfast, plus the hotel connects to the parking lot of the Ark Encounter. The only thing that burned me was the $7.00 for parking. I mean what hotel does that? But it was still very enjoyable and convenient.

Disappointed in pool being closed and having to pay for parking. For $200 a night it wasn’t worth it. We didn’t get there on a day when the Ark has tours. You can only see the Ark from the top floor and it’s about a mile away. Disappointed visit. Good thing is it’s only an hour from the Bourbon trail!

The hotel and room was nice and fairly new. Nice that it was adjacent to the Ark Encounter but they have capitalized on that by now charging parking fees. Not noted when I booked. Such greed!
