Check in was a breeze. The guaranteed parking right at the front door was an important perk! The apartment was just as described, nice & tidy and there was a Keurig with K-Cups and coffee fixings. I would definitely stay here again! Thanks Matt.

Amazing little honey hole.

If I were fishing I'd say I hooked a whopper of a deal. Literally right on the strip where you can shop, eat, dance and drink the night away. Great location and a great price. I couldn't be happier with this listing and will definitely be staying there every time I go to Cincinnati!
