Very clean room. However the landline hotel room phones did not work so you couldn’t call the front desk. Also there was no microwave. Overall very nice hotel and staff.

Radisson Hotel Louisville North
Clean and beautiful hotel but the bathroom was very janky. We weren't given any bathroom supplies (soap, shampoo) but they did have some random items when we went to the front desk to ask. Also the curtains would not stay closed without a safety pin. Kind and friendly staff, though
