Awful, please don’t waste your money! Crack house on the river front to sum it up.
Pros:

Venue smells like cigarettes and weed smoke. The lobby and rooms were filthy. The floors were buckled and the walls had holes in them. The staff (i.e. front desk and house keeping) had attitudes and very combative. It was so bad my wife and I couldn’t stay there. We checked in and checked out 20 minutes later.

Cons:

Everything about the venue.

Decent if you want to save
Pros:

The location of the hotel is excellent. Things to do nearby and just over the border in Kentucky where you get a better bang for your buck. The style was pretty neat as well being round and lighting up every night.

Cons:

Front desk staff wasn't super friendly and seemed to have an issue with using Booking.com to make reservations. The outlets near the beds were very loose and wouldn't hold a charging brick to charge phones so if you don't have a USB A to plug into the wall you had to use an outlet across the room.

Not bad for a one night stay
Pros:

Close to Mainstrasse, reasonably clean but hard to tell in an old tired hotel. Good view of Cincinnati skyline.

Cons:

Internet was very slow. Noisy, trains on one side, traffic on the bridge the other side so guess that is why they gave us earplugs!
