"I arrived at this Hilton Hotel and it was like stepping back in time. The lobby and bar is like a scene from a gangstar film with a piano bar and cocktails flowing (without the smoke). Great crowd and food from the 1931 bar. The hotel looks like it has all its original fittings, which is pleasant in this day and age. The room was a decent size with a nice bed and a great bathroom but a think there may have been some bed bugs. If you're in town to watch the Bengals, its only a short walk to the...

"Apartment is very cute and is centrally located in OTR. The bar scene is very active outside the apartment, so keep that in mind. We were celebrating my niece’s 21st birthday, so we didn’t mind. What we loved: plenty of towels and linens, washer and dryer, hair dryer, comfortable beds (even the twin rollaways were decent), plenty of extra dishes and glasses, internet was great, lots of recommendations for food and entertainment placed around the apartment. Things to consider: apartment is...

"The room was smaller than expected, and all the noise from outside came in. I stayed there for New Year's, but not only could I hear the sounds of the celebration, I could also hear every step and conversation of people walking in the hallway. The fire alarm went off at night, and a manager (I assume it was the hotel manager) was running through the hallway, asking, 'Is everyone okay in here?!' That seemed like an unusual fire safety procedure."

"The room was nicely laid out, quiet and it had a very nice shower. Also the breakfast was very enjoyable. However, we were never able to connect to the internet and it would have been nice to have a safe and a bedside clock. And we don’t remember seeing a telephone in the room. That being said, we would make a return visit! "
