    The only shortfall was the parking. You had to either pay valet or find a parking spot on the street. However, valet staff (more than a few) were directly outside the front door of the building, quick and ready to be of service. And they were so kind and funny! We were highly favored, thank you Jesus, and found a spot directly up front so we did not use their valet service.

    I loved almost everything about this property! It was beautiful inside and out. The staff were all professional, quick and sweet! We called the front desk for bedding for the pull out sofa and they were delivered with a smile in 5 minutes or less. And we were on the 11th floor, at check in time! The breakfast was yummy and had a great variety, plenty of seating and a friendly staff there to keep everything clean, tidy and food plentiful.

    I had a chicken sandwich at the bar in the lobby and it wasn’t cooked thoroughly.

    Francés at the front desk was wonderful! She was extremely welcoming and told me about all the amenities. Valet was also pleasant! I wish I remembered his name! But keep up the great work! Breakfast was pretty good and the sausage and biscuits were great!

    Need more help for your valle drivers!

    During checkout or am times, if you are going to charge 42.00$ to park cars at your facility, you should have multiple valle drivers available. The driver was WONDERFUL unimpressed with the hotel expecting him to get 8 people's cars during checkout time, waited at least 15 min for my car, and called 10 min ahead. That needs to be adjusted for your poor workers, especially if you think charging 42$ is acceptable.

    Hotel is exceptional clean and in a great location.

    No parking garage, but they have valet parking service. You can also park on the street in front of the hotel.

    All the staff are very friendly! Got our room upgraded by the front desk into beautiful spacious room with magnificent city view. The location is near by all the good restaurant. Perfect for date night or weekend getaway!

    It was a bummer that the roof top bar was closed to the rest of the guests due to a private party that had reserved it. And there were not many dishes to use in the room, there was only 3 plates, a couple coffee Mugs and a couple glasses. There needs to be more glassware and kitchen items. But all in all it was satisfactory. Parking was not included in the cost of the room, $42 per night. The hotel cost was already pricey and thus should be included.

    The breakfast buffet was awesome! There were so many choices, far exceeded my expectations. The hotel also has a patio area out back that has a fountain area and a grill and fire pit. The area was beautiful. We even used the grill. The staff was excellent in setting up the grill for our use. The hotel is less than half a mile from The Reds stadium, perfect walking distance.
