Overall it wasn’t bad but there is definitely room for improvements. The room we stayed in, the outlet was hanging out of the wall, the shower curtain needed replaced and the fixtures looked old and dated. It was convenient to get to GABP and to the cathedral. Easy access to the interstate too.

There is a light attached to a motion detector in each room. You can turn this light off but you cannot turn off the motion detector. Therefore, if you toss and turn at night you will set it off and the light will come on. Repeatedly, all night long. There is nothing you can do about this. After the first night I asked the front desk if there was anything I could do to switch it off and they said no. After the second night, I asked them (same staff on duty) if they had any duct tape or electrical tape to cover up the motion sensor, and they not only had some ready, they mentioned that a lot of people do this, which is to say, this is a known problem they seem uninterested in fixing. Also the whole place reeks of old cigarette smoke.

Its a long, hot walk to downtown. However, there is a bus route that stops directly in front of the hotel. There are not many food options in that area. Also, the hotel is kinda old and gross. They have beds and the doors lock, but its not very nice. Have low expectations.

Great place to stay for the money if youre going to a Reds, or Bengals game or just in general want to enjoy Cincinnati. Staff was friendly, parking was easy, may be rough for larger vehicles. My room was clean and everything worked as it was supposed to. Sorrounding area seemed kinda rough, I didn't feel super safe walking back from a reds game alone. Definitely recommend Uber or getting a ride if your caught at night. This isn't really a fault of the hotel. Overall great experience, 4/5 stars.
