This property has aged, and not in a good way. The room was not very clean. One of the water bottles they leave for guests was open, and only half full. Only one elevator was functioning for part of our visit, and the staff was nothing to write home about. Fairly disappointing.

The property has real potential if it was updated in the rooms. Our lights didn’t work in our room, when you flushed the toilet the whole tank cover pops up, there was a questionable white drip stain down the side of the bed, the refrigerator wasn’t plugged in and the server was down so they could not issue keys (were told it was down for three days) each patron had to be escorted to their room and let in every time you needed access which caused a long wait and back up which although out of their control to some extent there was no gesture to make up for it and the staff were getting testy with each other. You can tell they are trying but unfortunately it is missing the mark.

We arrived to the hotel and all the computers were down. There was a line of people waiting out the door. There was only one staff member checking in. We had no key cards and had to enter or leave our room and had to be escorted to the room each time we wanted to enter . When we got to our room the toilet didn’t flush . I went to make coffee in the morning and the coffee machine was broke . Overall not a great experience and wouldn’t go back.

When we first arrived, we were told that the computer systems were down and we had to wait in a line for 58 minutes in order to check in with the one person helping the line. They were unable to provide us with a key to our room, so we had to be escorted via the elevator with other guests to be let into our room with a master key (while we stopped at multiple floors to let others into their rooms on the way). When we got to our room, the restroom smelled terribly of mildew, the bathroom (and only) sink didn’t drain for our entire stay and the thermostat was ripped off the wall, so we couldn’t change the temperature in the room. We also paid extra for a city view, but ended up with a view of a Frisch’s and two speedway (though if you went out onto the balcony and looked to the left you could see the city). Even with all of these problems, the hotel staff didn’t offer more than a “sorry” and “thanks for your patience”.

Aftermath of storms led to disappointing stay

Perhaps my worst hotel experience in 25 years. After storms went through the area just before check-in, the system went offline for over two days meaning no key cards could be issued and guests had to be escorted into their room any time the door closed behind them. With long lines at elevators, and no provision to dear with additional security, I almost had someone try to get into my room, saying it was theirs. (Thankfully I had the lock on. Which deterred them from fully entering) Additionally, only one of the three public elevators was working, and the toilet in my room would not shut off unless I manually reset it, every time it flushed. This was a busy weekend and the staff really did do their best, but it did cause issues for the full duration of the stay. I stayed in the same hotel last summer and know it's fine when everything is working, but when everything was going wrong, it did have negative impact on my trip. I will really have to think twice or more about staying here in future trips to Cincinnati.

Great Location and Service!

The computers were out and we had to wait over an hour to just checkin. We had to fill out paper forms for credit card authorization, get our ID and CC copied, then we didn't get a room key...we had to wait on a Radisson employee to let us in our rooms, albeit was but a couple minutes and they were hustling! I have stayed at this specific Radisson over a dozen times for all ball games on Cincy. However...the price tripled for the May 3 weekend. I believe there was a marathon, dental convention and the ballgame, but still paid $289...when never paying over $109 a night. Front desk people were amazing! One other thing...the weed smell in Cincy has exponentially increased, almost as bad as Chicago.

Hotel is not worth it

The employees were great. The hotel itself is old and in poor condition. They had system issues so they couldn't give us a card to enter our room. The bathroom was clean but old and rusty, bathroom extractor did not work properly . The beds are ok but the pillows are terrible. Overall the building is not well kept.
