Disappointed

I booked a riverview room come to find out there is no riverview rooms all you can see is the parking lotand a wall. I liked how the double room was set up. Did see a cockroach in the bathroom.

6/10 Good

It’s been 12 hours since checking out and I have yet to receive the $20 back. There were also people screaming and pounding on doors for over an hour after midnight. Also had someone throw up on the floor right in front of our door. Other than that, good stay.

10/10 Exceptional

Easy access to Cincinnati and Newport.

Staff was super friendly. Breakfast was good. It took us 5 minutes to reach the heart of downtown Cincinnati and also Newport. The hotel is next to two liquor stores and the view is nonexistent, however that isn't why we chose this location. We chose this location because of the easy access to Cincinnati and Newport. We used the hotel as a place to sleep at night and eat breakfast. It excelled at both of these items. Rooms were clean and comfortable. The breakfast was good. We would stay here again on our next trip to Cincinnati.
