Great Hotel, Great Staff
Honestly, I loved my stay here. The room was spotless clean, the bed was comfortable, the staff was incredibly friendly and the location isn't that bad (I am a single woman traveler and didn't feel unsafe). If you're doing business anywhere on 75. The pool is comically tiny, but there is a hot tub and while I was there, I had the whole place to myself! For the price, this is a pretty excellent place. The Radisson, which is the other large hotel in this part of KY/Cincinnati I've heard terrible things about. Now, be warned, the breakfast which is usually complimentary is about $11.50 if you choose to eat it...

Nice weekend stay with my family
Close to the highway~ quick check in and out~ small room but clean and comfortable ~ breakfast was really good (purchase it with the room instead of paying daily)~ swimming pool was small but never was crowded and great hours~ Train was never an issue and my 4yr. Old son loved it! ~ plenty of fast food within walking distance~ We ordered from the restaurant that delivers to the hotel, which was good and they have a variety. Would stay again!

Courtyard Marriott COvington
Room was generally clean and neat. Blanket for pull-put couch was stained and dirty, though. Otherwise it was fine. On our last day Housekeeping came into our room before we checked out and stripped the beds and removed some of the towels. We would have preferred that they waited until we were gone. We felt that it was an invasion of our privacy.

Courtyard by Marriott on the Ohio River
This location on the Ohio River mere blocks from I-75 was very convenient by car to downtown Cincinnati and entertainment/attractions in nearby Newport. Staff was excellent and the overall experience quite fine, although this is not a five-star luxury hotel by any means.

In Hotel
There's no room service here, and the only meal available in the hotel is the the breakfast buffet (which is excellent). We solved our need for room service one afternoon by ordering from LaRosa's, who delivered to the hotel room.

spontaneous family getaway
We visited The Newport Levee and Aquarium, had a blast. The hotel worked perfectly for our family, it was really quiet & clean and had the best breakfast & service. It would be nice if the price of the breakfast was included in the price, it was additional. Overall really nice, pool was nice and warm, we loved it!

Good family hotel
We were there for a wedding and also visited the aquarium. The location was easy for access to the highway but further from the aquarium then it looked like on the map. The room was clean and the beds were comfortable but the bathroom was just average for a 3 1/2 star hotel. And the regular continental breakfast that is free in most places is $11, not worth it. Try the restaurants on Main St instead.

Clean, convenient, awesome guest service
We were in town for a wedding and the location was a short cab ride away. When we called down to the desk for a cab they made sure one was waiting for us at the exact time specified. We had a great experience.
