We arrived late at night and the staff was very welcoming. Advised what time breakfast was served and the hours for the pool. The room was very clean and spacious. We had a room with a balcony facing the Ohio River. Highly recommend for families or business travlers as right next to convention center. There is also a bar and restaurant on site but they did close early.
