Room 219 had electrical issues which were a safety hazard. The lamps, nor light over the sink near the bathroom worked, and I was told that they could not be repaired because of electrical issues. I was told that on the morning of day 2, May 25, 2025. The water in sink was extremely slow to go down drain, there was no shower gel in bathroom. I asked for some shower gel and did not receive any at all. The one desk staff (male) advised that he was coming to room on May 24, 2025 to check lights, sink, and bring shower gel, but he never came to the room. I had to complain the next morning. I was also told that I’d receive a discount for my visit with limited lights in my room. I didn’t receive any discount whatsoever. Needless to say, the visit was not pleasant.

Could've been a better stay

I stayed for 2 nights with a friend who was visiting from the west coast. There were two beds in the room but only one was slept on. I noticed on the opposite bed a small dead bug on top of the comforter. Upon that discovery. I noticed that the curtains were torn and a sock was on the floor near the dining area. I didnt much rest on the 2nd night of being there. There was noise coning from the lobby by fellow guests. My first time ever visiting Cincinnati and wasn't very impressed with the hotel quality. I'll choose better the next time.

Our stay was great! The room was big clean and quiet. We particularly enjoyed the color scheme, not your average still hotel colors. My only advice is to note the bed sizes. Most hotels offer rooms with two queen size beds, in this hotel the beds are twin size.
