Cincinnati da brivido! (in senso positivo)
Pros:

Siamo arrivati il giorno di una tempesta di neve.
Ci siamo presentati in anticipo di una mezz’ora/ quarantina di minuti rispetto all’orario di check in proprio per sfuggire alle conseguenze della neve.
Ci hanno fatto accomodare subito in camera, staff eccezionale, preparato e alla mano, consigliando il da farsi per il nostro soggiorno.
Stanze silenziose, con vista, e molto pulite e ampie.
Palestra h24, bellissimo rooftop che gode di vista magnifica (anche se gelido) dove si può affittare un “igloo” con stufa e ordinare aperitivi.

Servizio valet (45$) e colazione (18$/persona) costosi ma comprensibili.

Cons:

saremmo rimasti un ulteriore notte, ma avevamo necessità di spostarci, anche in mezzo a una tormenta, ma sarà motivo per noi di ritorno in un momento migliore dell’anno!

Lovely stay at the cottage
Pros:

Allowed us to valet our vehicle early to explore the city. And then a slightly early check-in, so we wouldn't be late to our 4:00 p.m. hockey game.

Love the establishment and the location.

Our stay was a beautiful view of the water and bridge and comfortable bedding to rest.
Pros:

The staff and the location was great. We didn't want to do anything big for our 25th anniversary but be together and the AC Hotel by Marriott provided that and more. Thank you for our 1st awesome experience of downtown Cincinnati, we will return.

Pleasant stay
Pros:

The location was good. The rooftop bar area was really impressive, great views! The lady in the bar was very friendly and helpful.

Cons:

Not totally clean - we found an empty coke bottle under the chair in our room. Charged for valet parking even though we parked our car out front ourselves and it was never moved. It was Xmas so we understand it wasn’t busy and a skeleton staff but don’t find it fair to be charged valet prices.
