Love love love it!!! From the friendly staff to the adorable decor. This hotel was made kids and the young at heart. I was in a WKRP in Cincinnati decorated room.

Whimsical hotel near UC and the zoo

A whimsical, modern and comfortable place to stay near UC and the zoo. Can walk to campus and the zoo and there is a cafe for morning food and coffee and a bar for evening food and drink. Staff can be a bit hit or miss but generally highly recommend this Graduate location.

We tried getting drinks and an appetizer two separate times. First time we were ignored and decided not to wait after 10 minutes.
