"We had a fantastic stay at The Elwood! The staff especially Stephanie and Nastyia went above and beyond to be helpful. Thank you so much to them. The Fiddletree down stairs had great food and very fresh. Eat or have a drink outside if you get the chance it was nice. The rooms were clean and the beds were very comfortable. Our room had a horse theme which I loved! The hotel was close to everywhere we wanted go. I’m so glad I picked this hotel for our stay in Lexington."
