Sooo much space for our group of 7 adults!
This place is very nice for a getaway to Cincinnati. It was incredibly spacious, clean, and had 2 places to shower or bathe—which is somewhat hard to find…Very cheap Lyft rates to anywhere you wanna go—and save yourself hassle and parking fees….The property owners/managers went overboard with responding to our ask about where a pan was and we received a brand new shipment minutes later….it was an amazing place and we are happy to recommend it to folks- thanks for helping making our son’s birthday weekend special.

Clean, fine
The whole building seems a bit slapped up but it's clean and comfy, just don't grab any woodwork as it might come off in your hand. Walkable to local restaurants and Eden Park. Perfect layout for three couples and a couple kids to share a space.
