Breakfast menu was pretty good. The cinnamon rolls were great. The parking out front was not great due to construction and not a great area but the hotel itself was nice and the staff was wonderful.

The room was clean. There was some wear and tear evidence in the wall of the tub/shower, especially near the grab bar, and discoloration in the tile grouting, evidently close to time for some property updates. (Which is happening at Holiday Inn Expresses I’ve noticed in recent travels.) Beds were comfy, it was quiet - slept well. Staff was very nice. Overall good and I would stay here again. Also a great location for attending events in Cincinnati.
