    Great Stay at the Newly Renovated Holiday Inn Express! Loved my stay at the Holiday Inn Express in Nicholasville! The hotel looks amazing after the complete renovation — super clean, modern, and comfortable. The staff were all awesome, and the GM, Amy, was especially great to work with — super friendly and helpful. Breakfast was delicious with lots of choices every morning. Overall, a great experience — I’ll definitely stay here again next time I’m in the area!

    The place is clean. Rooms are up to date in terms of outlets and ports for electronics. Staff is nice and helpful. There's a Dollar Store with walking distance and don't sleep on the food at Home Stretch Bar and Grill across the way. It's good and locals that hangout there are nice people.

    Would not recommend this place. The only thing it has going for it is the breakfast spread. Not worth the price at all. The room was clean enough just don't look too close. The fire alarm went off at 11pm and we all had to go outside for a few minutes while they figured it out. No fire just an issue with the system I guess. Anyways didn't seem like a great part of town either. While we were outside during the "fire drill" there were 2 homeless men standing out front. Not a very welcoming environment for guests. At checkout the next morning they did not offer any sort of discount for the inconvenience. Again avoid staying here if you can.
