Not the cleanest of places we’ve stayed in but was average. Near a liquor store which was a bit concerning. The sofa bed hadn’t been stripped and there was food in the pullout sofa bed and under it.

It was a nice and convenient. However we could hear the traffic all night, because it was right next to the highway as well as a fire station. It was also surrounded by three liquor stores which was concerning for safety reasons. The bathroom floor had long hair on it as if it needed to be cleaned.

Warm and welcoming.
Was great from the moment we stepped into the door. The staff was warm and welcoming. They gave my son stickers and an ice cream. When we went down for breakfast the am staff was just as friendly. Breakfast both days were delicious and had a huge variety. Housekeeping came to make sure we didn’t need anything since we were staying 2 nights. I have no complaints and if I travel to Cincinnati again, I will definitely stay here again!

Nice hotel and staff, bad beds
The staff was incredibly pleasant, good breakfast, nice quiet room. The “river view” we were given was not great, just a tiny peek in between some trees. The bed was so high! I’m a little less than average height and getting into the bed was a struggle.

Disliked: Amenities
This hotel is not near anything!! We were visiting to watch the Bengals and to enjoy local restaurants/bars. There isn’t anything close. The Paycor Stadium and restaurants/bars is about a 35 min walk. Not even a coffee shop near by. If you plan on driving around, this hotel may fit your preference but it missed the mark for us.

Great hotel near Paycor Stadium
The hotel was clean and comfortable. Breakfast was good with a variety of hot and cold options. The staff was super friendly and accommodating. The location was nice with lots of food establishments nearby and easy access to public transportation. The walk to Paycor Stadium was mostly flat and scenic. I would highly recommend.

Great staff, amazing breakfast, comfortable beds, the softest sheets ever! The only down side was the location felt a bit sleazy. It’s right beside some liquor stores, next to a highway bridge (with a couple of homeless folks). We walked to the cute street in Covington, but i was thankful i was with my 6’2” husband.
