National Underground Railroad Freedom Center, Paycor Stadium, and Great American Ballpark are very close! Close to multiple restaurants! Great staff especially the breakfast host. Not enough hotel carts to accommodate guests. We carried all of our belongings up, and carried them down upon check out time. We went to the Cincinnati Music Festival! Hotel room could've been cleaner...

We mistakenly came while a game was going on and it was extremely difficult to get to the hotel as roads were blocked and none of the officers would move them even though we had a reservation and had to use the road to get to the hotel. Other than that it was wonderful and they gave us a ballpark view which the kids lived.

This is not a 4 star. The rooms are sparse. No storage, no clocks, limited bedside table, the bathroom is the quality of a mobile home. The hallway carpets are dirty with obvious water stains. The room floors are cheap and dirty. Extremely limited dining on site but restaurants close by. The roof top bar was closed most of the time. The only good things about this hotel is location, the staff was very nice and the workout “room” was decent. The hotel needs upgrades…badly. The hotel is a 3 star at best. 👎👎
