Room was in good shape; though, you can not open windows. It has a refrigerator and coffee maker. Beds were perfect for my family. Staff was excellent and helped us when requested.

Radisson Hotel Louisville North
Staff was very attentive and helpful. The room was clean but slightly dated. The drains were very slow and there was a slow leak from the shower faucet. Despite these minor issues it was a pleasent stay.
