I could not have been happier with the Hotel Louisville which is operated by Wayside Christianity Mission. I knew nothing about the hotel before my stay but can now say that if there is any good use for 21st century Christianity, the Hotel Louisville is that use. It serves the least of our brethren as directed by Gospel. The guests were also much friendlier than you find at a Hilton or a Marriott. I figure they can afford to be friendlier because they have not spent their lives building walls around themselves to protect their property and possessions. They are real people. I am grateful for the eye-opening experience. I have no complaints,

A hotel with a mission
The Hotel Louisville requires some explanation. It is an old and large hotel in a somewhat marginal downtown neighborhood, and employs security guards. It is owned by a Christian missionary organization, which explains the huge cross on the side of the building. The organization also operates a program to help homeless people transition out of their homeless situation, and trains and hires some of them. Guests meet some of them at the free breakfast, at the hotels small restaurant. I was just fine with all of this and appreciated the explanation.The cost to stay at the Hotel Louisville was very low, which offset the comparatively old facilities, furniture, heating/AC unit and TV service. The hotel has a large parking lot in front. Less acceptable were the lack of any listing of TV channels (even at the front desk), the unusable room telephone (no power cord), and the inflexible 4:00 check-in time. These are management issues that could be solved. The bed sheet covered only the bottom half of the bed. So the Hotel Louisville is a bit of an adventure but an interesting and inexpensive place to stay.

Amazingly Nice
Really enjoyed staying at Hotel Louisville. The location was great, scenic view of the city. Breakfast was great and the room was very comfortable.

3/5 Okay

This property is in a section of Louisville that has a number of homeless people living on the street. They also have a program where the disadvantaged can stay there. I dont have a problem with helping the homeless, if my stay subsidizes anothers stay. Im a smoker and was often in front of the hotel having a cigarette. I was asked for a cigarette many times over that weekend. I automatically said no after more than 20 requests. One homeless bum was so angered by my refusal, he punched me in the face, knocked off my glasses, and then ran away. Even 2 of their security personnel asked me for a cigarette. Aggressive bums in a bad section of Louisville will keep me from returning to Hotel Louisville.

IT ALSO OPERATES AS A HALFWAY HOUSE for women in recovery (which is a great mission) but was not advertised except for a small line in "special check-in instructions." Building is surrounded by homeless people. Air in room did not work. Shower had a bar of soap leftover with hair on it from previous customers. They cleaned the carpets around bedtime and the entire floor smelled like toxic paint-thinner. Building smells of smoke. Staff was great and friendly. Breaskfast had pancakes, fresh fruit, and oatmeal. Condition was okay for the price but I did not appreciate their expedia listing not being upfront.
