“Very cool historic hotel with a beautiful vibe. Friendly staff. Very large and clean room. Had a drink after dinner in the hotel restaurant but next time will definitely try dinner there as well. Looks amazing! Great location, parking a bit tricky but I understand they are working on that. Would definitely recommend and will stay again...”
“ Very nice. clean but small hotel. Seems more like a BnB. The staff was great; the atmosphere was great and the smells form the dining room made me thimk of a five star restaurant. ”
“A clean restful overnight stay! Beds were very comfortable and sheets and linens were very clean. It had everything we needed including dispenser soap and shampoo, hair dryer, iron. Very nice place too stay. Happy we chose the Blue Grass Inn. ”
“Was greeted in a courteous, friendly and professional manner. Room was exactly as expected. Great breakfast! Did have an issue but was resolved very quickly! They definitely went above and beyond for customer satisfaction ”
“The romantic cottage was just what we needed. Only thing we could possibly say we didn’t like was the entrance to the property off of the road. It was pretty tight, but thankfully it’s not too busy and we never had any issues with people coming or going at the same time that we were.”
![Kentucky State University was chartered in May 1886 as the State Normal School for Colored Persons, only the second state-supported institution of higher learning in Kentucky.[1] During the euphoria of Frankfort's 1886 centennial celebration, the city donated $1,500 towards the purchase of land for a new college on a bluff overlooking Frankfort.
The new school formally opened on October 11, 1887, with three teachers, 55 students, and John H. Jackson as president.[1] Recitation Hall (now Jackson Hall), the college's first permanent building, was erected in that year.
KSU became a land-grant college in 1890, and the departments of home economics, agriculture and mechanics were added to the school's curriculum.[1] The school produced its first graduating class of five students in the spring of that year. A high school was organized in 1893. This expansion continued into the 20th century in both name and program. In 1902, the name was changed to Kentucky Normal and Industrial Institute for Colored Persons. The name was changed again in 1926 to Kentucky State Industrial College for Colored Persons.](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/7262/80b239a0-cf4a-4e00-8ea0-fb6e64265ab6.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=1200&h=500&q=medium)
