Radisson Hotel Louisville North
Room needs to have carpet replaced. It was so filthy the bottom of my feet turned black. There us mold around the windows and on the curtains. The bathroom needs updated. There was no mat to put inside the tub and it was very slippery. It was a very old tub. Won't stay there again.

Complimentary breakfast had a really good variety and options. Staff was friendly and helpful. Check in was effortless and clear with hotel amenities. The room was clean and fresh; bathrooms were well kept. I mattress was definitely starting to wear out but still sleep able.
