This was our second stay here and will stay again when in town. Very cool place if you like art. Great service. Nice room but nothing really special about it. Super convenient location downtown on Main Street, walking distance to many attractions and distilleries. Very good on-site restaurant/bar.

Unique and fun place to stay. Loved the art works displayed throughout the property. Appreciated the sense of humor with the red penguins that surprised us appearing at different locations every day. Staff was professional and friendly. Small fridge in the room would have been nice.

Unique hotel with character. There's a museum inside and they provide you with a free bourbon sample to tour it. And the PENGUINS. Everywhere there are 3' tall red plastic penguins that seem to move around the hotel. What a fun idea. Woke up to one in front of our door one morning. Great staff!!! So helpful and great to talk to. Everyone from the doorman to the front desk and bar staff. Also loved the bar! Cici was amazing!
