Everything is great but the parking lot is poorly designed. Everyone seems to have difficulty maneuvering the poles and navigating how to line up with adjacent cars! Not your fault just poor engineering/architectural design!

Too bad We Couldn't Stay Longer

We were there for only one night, but really enjoyed it. The room was large and comfortable, as was the bathroom. Loved the big shower! The breakfast buffet was great. Valet service for our car was very accommodating. And the entire place was very clean.

Really nice, new, artsy hotel. Stayed here with family on a short trip to see the Cincincinatti Zoo. Staff was nice, rooms were very clean, parking was free, and there’s a food hall right next door with great dining options. I was surprised at how few guests were there. So, if you’re looking to book a big function, I’d bet they’d be able to accommodate. Seems like it would be a cool place for a wedding reception.

Went a few hours in the first room with no air conditioning, maintenance got it turned on but it never started cooling. Eventually moved us to another room, thankfully the AC was working there. Lots of kids running around and yelling at all hours of the night. The restaurant was decent but nothing notable. I was looking forward to carrot cake and it was unavailable at 8:00pm on a Saturday, I could see being out of it was late at night but if you have 2 dessert options I would think you’d plan to have enough to get you through a Saturday dinner service. 4.5/10 experience I will not make plans to return.
