7.0/10

My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The location is superb, nestled between the intriguing Over the Rhine neighborhood and the serene Sawyer Pointe Park along the riverfront. The staff was friendly and very helpful, making my experience delightful. However, the dining options left something to be desired with subpar quality. Despite some shortcomings, I found the hotel to be a good choice for those wanting a central location with friendly service.

Rooms

My room on the 11th floor, booked with points, had an odd shape, including a very uncomfortable couch in the limited living area. The sitting chair in the bedroom faced the small bathroom, which was a bit inconvenient.
