"Been staying here off and on for over 20 years, the rooms are out dated and the decline over the years show. The view and balcony are awesome but don’t know if I’ll stay again. "

### AC Hotel by Marriott Cincinnati at The Banks

8/10 Good

"The room was clean and the staff was nice. The only two drawbacks were that they didn't clean my room, so we did not have coffee on our second morning, and parking is very expensive."

### Hyatt Place Cincinnati Airport / Florence

6/10 Okay

"The layout and size of the rooms are the strong qualities. The breakfast was chaotic b/c it was very crowded and difficult to get to the food and there were lines waiting for the next batches to come out. I stayed 6 nights but my room was straightened up with fresh towels only once. There was a guy behind the bar at breakfast who looked like he worked there, but when I asked if he could prepare a cafe mocha, he rudely informed me that he didn’t know how to work the espresso machine. I don’t think that I will stay at this Hyatt Place again. Lots of negative vibes. "

### Hyatt Regency Cincinnati

6/10 Okay

"Hotel and rooms were clean just run down. Furniture in room was pretty marked up. Both head boards were ripped. Pool was not as nice as pictured. There was a lot of hair in the pool water. Restaurant food was okay but service was poor. 24/7 marketplace was convenient however staff both in the evening and morning were very rude. "
