Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Mary May 2, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, communication Disliked: Amenities The owners communicated well and were very nice. The room was clean with plenty of space however amenities were limited. No hair dryer, no kleenex, the heater/ac was noisy and the room needed a ceiling fan to keep the air moving. Hot water was only lukewarm and it took forever to warm up. The fridge and microwave and coffee maker was much appreciated. ##### Mary Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2023 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Best Western University Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Mayfield-Hotels-Best-Western-University-Inn.h7616556.Hotel-Information) > > [Lakefront Cottage known as the Most Relaxing Place in the area & 5 kayaks](https://www.expedia.ca/Verona-Hotels-Lakefront-Cottage-Known-As-The-Most-Relaxing-Place-In-The-Area-5-Kayaks.h18955433.Hotel-Information) > > [Comfort Suites London South](https://www.expedia.ca/Corbin-Hotels-Comfort-Suites-London.h6492.Hotel-Information) > > [Bourbon Ball Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Bardstown-Hotels-Bourbon-Ball-Inn.h93323228.Hotel-Information) > > [The Hideout on 3rd in Historic Downtown Bardstown on Main St](https://www.expedia.ca/Bardstown-Hotels-The-Hideout-On-3rd-In-Historic-Downtown-Bardstown.h110088830.Hotel-Information) > > [Belle Vue Lookout • Hot Tub + Stunning RRG Views | Close to Nada Tunnel & all the best hiking the Gorge has to offer!](https://www.expedia.ca/Stanton-Hotels-Belle-Vue-Lookout-Hot-Tub-RRG-Nada-Tunnel.h103410262.Hotel-Information) > > [CCI Express Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Madisonville-Hotels-CCI-Express-Inn.h15911328.Hotel-Information) > > [Lake house.
