Room itself wasn’t bad, however, the bathtub had a sizable constant drip and to take a shower more water ran out of the spout then coming out of the shower head!

When we first entered the room immediately we spot the dirty bath tub with thick layers of soap scum. We let the front desk know and she said she will need at least 30 min to get a chance to take care of it. We left for dinner and came back in about 2 hours and the bathtub was cleaned. However, when we turned the shower on we noticed the drain went down super slow due to being clogged. We had to turn the shower off a few times just to let the water drain to finish one shower. Plus, when you needed to pull the plug to let the water come out from the shower head the faucet came half way out of the wall! As we stay longer we noticed 3 very noticeable finger prints in the bathroom door and the area around the bathroom door handles and the handles were just full of fingerprints. The TV remote even felt sticky to the touch. All of these signs made us not trust their swiming pool either even though kids were excited about swiming. We didn’t take the breakfast in the hotel either because we could not trust any amenities. When we talked to the front desk about all of these issues we found she told us to call back in an hour to talk to the manager and we did and a different front desk lady kept asking what the phone call was about and after we told her we GOT HANG UP. So we had to hold our plan to go the Mammoth Cave and go back to the Holiday Inn to find the manager. We showed the mgr all the issues in the room and still waiting for a resolution from him.

Fine Family Spot near Mammoth Cave

Great place to stay close to Mammoth Cave NP. Pool area is tired and no more hot tub, just FYI. Check-in staff member was really nice. Breakfast missed on a couple items (ran out of milk for cereal and the pancake machine didn’t work), but still had breakfast, which was efficient.

Not much to chose from in Horse Cave for lodging. Recommend going to a larger city with more choices.
