They have a laundry facility and your pets are even welcome for a small pet deposit overall, a very nice hotel for being the third cheapest. In owensboro, you've got to stay here. If you come to owensboro"

Super 8 by Wyndham Owensboro

10/10 Excellent

"We enjoyed our stay here! The staff was very friendly and very helpful! The interior is much nicer than the exterior. The interior is very nice and newly renovated and the exterior looks to still need a touchup. Our hairdryer wasn’t working but they allowed us to use a different one with no problems. I would definitely stay here again!"

Home2 Suites By Hilton Owensboro

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent place very nice and clean property"

Quality Inn Lewisport

10/10 Excellent

"Great rooms, great service, good breakfast"

Quality Inn & Suites Rockport - Owensboro North (GOLD AWARD WINNER)

10/10 Excellent

"My entire three-day experience was very pleasant. Hotel staff were friendly and helpful. My room was very comfortable. I appreciated the soaps, hair products and other health and beauty aids. The breakfast was very convenient. I was intrigued by the privacy shade on the window, where I could see out but which provided total privacy. My only problem during my stay, which was in no way connected with the hotel, was that coming back from Owensboro to the south, the highway exit leading to the hotel was blocked due to road construction. However, there was a turnaround a mile or so up the road. I will definitely plan to make reservations at this hotel during my future trips to the Owensboro area."
