The hotel is very clean and the staff was super friendly. The breakfast bar in the morning had way more options than I expected. It is within walking distance to University of Cincinnati. Would definitely stay again.

This is an ideal location for visiting UC. The front desk staff was very nice and helpful. I’d recommend requesting a lower floor (elevators can be slow during peak hours) so you can take the stairs. I’d also recommend not having street view as it is a college town and can be loud. The view of the little alley isn’t very scenic but is quiet

Very clean and friendly!

Seems very new and incredibly clean. My only issue was confusion on parking upon arrival. If you park in the attached garage marked for Target shoppers, you can go to Level 2 to find spots not saved for Target. Then the hotel can validate your parking ticket. It costs $15 for one exit or $18 for unlimited exits. My room was perfect and the breakfast was good.

Clean, comfortable and family friendly

Hotel was super clean and recently updated. The staff was friendly, especially the breakfast host. Breakfast was okay, muffins, eggs, cereal, and nice to start our day. My kids loved the pool. Our only complaint was the hotel view is an alley, and parking is a block away so you do have to walk with your luggage. It was very noisy all night. There was construction and then garbage trucks all hours of the night so sleeping was difficult, but not the hotels fault. Overall we'd stay again as its a convenient location and the hotel was clean and comfortable.
