7.2/10

The hotel is conveniently located with a perfect balance between food and entertainment options nearby. The rooms could have been cleaner but were equipped with a comfortable king bed and fresh coffee. The service was lacking, and the dining options varied with hot and cold selections but lacked omelettes. Overall, the stay offered value for money.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were spacious and modern with fresh coffee available, but unfortunately, they had not been cleaned very well by housekeeping. The service was friendly, but there were some aspects that could have been better. The location in the Cincinnati area was convenient with close proximity to restaurants and nearby attractions, although it was not perfect. The dining options provided great choices including hot and cold options, but there were some downsides. Overall, it was a decent stay with room for improvement.

The hotel is in a prime location in the heart of everything, close to bars and restaurants.
