Hotel was clean and staff was courteous. Not many dining options within walking distance, other than fast food. Room rate was high due to NFL game.

James, Berlin

Liked: Cleanliness
Disliked: Amenities
The room itself was decent, but there was no microwave in the room. There was in the hallway to share. When I got up one morning, there were a pair of pants next to it! Both ladies at the desk when I checked in were busy on their phones. Afterwards, were helpful. Was a charge for breakfast the first day I stayed, but not the second. That was odd. Free water and coffee were nice amenities, though tasted like tap water and coffee was not particularly good either. Only non-dairy creamer. Hard to find anything good to eat other than fast food, in the neighborhood. I walked about a mile to Kung Food, which was good. Catholic Church within walking distance. I liked that. Walking disrance (though through a not so good part of town) to Great American Ballpark. If going to see another Reds game, would stay there again, but not wander out after dark.

Meh.
Hotel was ok, staff was very nice. Older hotel, there was nighttime security across the street at night due to recent violence. Wish I had known that before booking. Bed was uncomfortable. I do not recommend adding in breakfast, go find it elsewhere. Our food was cold even after it was freshly brought from the kitchen and there was only one person working and they were out of everything. She was very nice and did her best, but was definitely not a great customer experience.

With the addition of $25.00 for the no fee breakfast I found that $300.00 a night is unexceptionable. And they would not give me a military discount because I booked with you guys

Not horrible but rooms need updated. Bedside lamp had no outlet to plug it in. A/C not cool enough/added humidity. Deep cleaning would help. The shuttle service to Cincy was great and staff were helpful.
