"Nice rooms and staff"

Springhill Suites by Marriott Midtown Cincinnati

8/10 Good

"There was no parking available at the hotel so we had to park in the hospital lot. We still were charged $10. When I am paying over $200 for a night, I would think self parking would be free. Or at least have enough parking."

MainStay Suites Cincinnati University - Uptown

10/10 Excellent

"Great room for the price. Large rooms. Clean. Staff was great. Breakfast went fast and had to wait 15 minutes for more to be brought out. Not a huge deal but we hadn't planned our timing for that. Overall, will stay again"
