The property was dirty and smelled bad. It’s in an unsafe area. Our door to our hotel room didn’t even lock and we had to be transferred to a new room once it was determine that Maintenance could not fix the lock. At all hours of the night (a Sunday…) there was loud doors banging shut. Felt very unsafe, slept with one eye open and terribly.

Another great Radisson visit

We've stayed at several hotels in the area over the years and the Radisson is by far our favorite. We exclusively stay at the Radisson now while in the Cincinnati area. The rooms are nice and clean, the staff is very friendly and helpful, the restaurant is very good, and the balcony views are pleasant. Looking forward to our next stay!

Not a bad property but not good either. The place is dated and needs a refresh bad. The bathroom (shower/toilet) exhaust fan and vent did not work and thus the water condensation was awful every shower. The wall plugs are worn out and don’t hold your charging blocks for your devices in.

Expected higher quality from Radisson

I was very disappointed. It was over priced. The electrical outlets did not work. Therefore, I could not charge my phone to retrieve my concert tickets. The mattress had an infestation on the lower edge, cigarette holes in the curtains, the iron did not work, and the chair in the room was torn.

Customer service great. Room was mediocre.

The customer service we received from the front desk was the main highlight of the visit. They were accommodating and happily assisted our stay. The state of the room had some flaws. The most apparent one was the smell as you entered the room. It was not a clean smell, but rather old. It was either the air conditioner or the refrigerator that rumble at various times. Four of the two lamps were not working in the room. The water faucets were loud and squeaky to turn on. The toilet was loud when flushing. I believe the odd smell in the room was coming from the carpet as it had stains throughout it. The food that we ordered for breakfast was very good and plentiful. However, we placed our order on the door before 12AM for a 730 delivery. We called at 8:15 as we had not received our food yet. We were transferred to the restaurant where it rang and picked up but then disconnected. We found out that our order had not been placed but they were very quick in getting an order to us. The room did not have any writing utensils or notepad as most hotels have. We had to call down to the front desk to have someone bring us up a pen in order to place our breakfast order. The restaurant on the 18th floor seemed appealing. I wish we had planned better and made time to visit it for dinner.
