    Austin's B&B was ideal for our weekend get-away. Tom and Mary helped us to feel right at home with their kindness and hospitality. We enjoyed the game room and complete with darts and a pool table. We also took advantage of the in room whirlpool tub which was very clean and relaxing. The bed linens were high quality and bed was very comfortable. Breakfast was delicious, had local country ham, omelette, and wonderful biscuits. Loved the area and close proximity to downtown attractions. They also had a great selection of newly released movies. I could not say enough nice things about the accommodations and the innkeepers. We are probable some of the younger guests (age 27 and 37) who seek out B&Bs, and Austin's truly has something for everyone.

    We stayed here for a Thanksgiving getaway. It was the pineapples that first attracted me, and Tom and Mary live up to their meaning. Mary cooks the most scrumptious, delicious, breakfasts, something different every day, and always top quality. The atmosphere is relaxing and you really want to linger over your food. Our room was beautifully decorated and the jacuzzi whirlpool right in the room was just what we wanted to relax. The location is great. We were ten minutes from Churchill Downs (where we ate lunch Thanksgiving Day and oohed and ached over the horses), the property is right on the edge of the historical district, and just wandering around that district among the beautiful old houses is well worth while We were just nine blocks from the river and the downtown area and so it couldn't have been nicer. The driveway is gated, which gave a feeling of security for parking the car, and the laid out brick courtyard with hedges and roses is really beautiful. Tom and Mary are great "mine hosts" and we definitely go again.

    Beautiful facility and amenities -- probably 100+ year old building, but impeccably restored. Best breakfast I've ever had! Louisville Slugger bat museum was about 5 minutes away. Tom & Mary Austin were very hospitable and attentive. We will definitely be back.

    Warm, inviting, comfortable, informal yet elegant, delicious food & hot coffee served by delightful and accommodating hosts, convenient to highway, secure. Everything one should expect from a highly rated B & B. We would definitely stay here again.

    Not wanting to leave town on our wedding night, my wife and I picked Austin's as a quick getaway. What we didn't expect was how far we could feel from the city while being only minutes from home (and downtown!). The hospitality of our hosts was unmatched, as was the delightful breakfast we were served. Honestly, I've never slept in a more comfortable bed. I highly recommend Austin's for anyone looking to treat themselves.
