This hotel is still recovering from a fire a year ago, so do not expect an indoor pool - that entire section (pool & rooms) is still closed off. The hotel is huge.... Huge. It does have an outdoor pool. The rooms are solidly built, so noise was not a problem. (We always take a sound machine just in case as we travel). Each room has their ...

No Indoor Pool and Going Downhill
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 09/26/07
This hotel is going downhill. We have stayed here many times over the years and I don't see much redecorating or updating taking place. Don't count on using the indoor pool. That part of the hotel caught on fire and I think that it has been out of commission for quite sometime. Call to inquire about that if you are attracted to ...

not a good place to stay

The place was just set on fire and had a charbroil smell to it.We had to park 10 blocks away and it did"nt seem very safe to walk down to your room. The hallways were like walking thru a heat wave. It was a very ...

Horrific
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 04/09/07
Though this visit was almost a year ago I still feel I need to warn others. I was visiting Owensboro for a college reunion and chose to stay in what when I left in 2001 was one of the nicest hotels in town...wow did times change.
The weekend also was where I was going to and did propose to my fiance (soon to be wife) and the flower shop ...
We were attending a wedding in Owensboro and the entire wedding party made reservations here. Upon arrival, the room was dirty and bug infested. I contacted the front desk and was told they would call me back. Instead, they sent a maintenance man with a can of bug spray. Not only did he spray the room but he also sprayed me. We were running ...

dump
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 02/06/07
a dump. this is the only thing i can say about what this hotel has become. a terrible stay would include, say, roaches? no, MICE. yes, mice. when you pull the covers back, you can expect to find....mice. the only reason i am writing here is for therapy for my post-tramatic stress--stress caused by this motel. never again!

A Great Birthday!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 01/03/07
We were in Owensboro for my birthday to see Billy Joe Royal and BJ thomas. It was a great birthday, could not have been better.
We got an entertainment package that was wonderfully priced, it was everything i expected plus more. Our room was wonderful, very comfortable and clean. We enjoyed the hotel very much, loved the view from the outside terrace of the Ohio River. This is definetly on my list of places to visit again.

Will not go back again
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 08/07/06
We were there 6 nights for a 18u softball tournament. We paid $90 per night. Way over priced for the value/service. This hotel needs to spend a few million for refurbishment. A/c was bad and they couldn't fix the problem. Beds were falling apart, the room was a non smoking, yet we found cigarette burns in the carpet and bed. The room smelled of ...
