Stayed at this property for Oktoberfest, which was close and easy to get to with public transportation. Great location overall OTR has its flaws but the location is close to a lot of food and entertainment. Host was nice and responsive. Property was well maintained and we would stay again!
We had a wonderful time in Cincinnati while staying at Back in Black. The host was communicative, informative and helpful. The property was conveniently located with plenty to do around us. The unit was clean, quiet, safe and cutely decorated. Highly recommend and will be back!
Hubby and I are addicted to once a month getaways and decided to do a local one. We lucked up in a parking spot a block down that wasn’t for reserved parking and were walking distance to get bars and restaurants. We have told many of our friends that they have to experience this.
Started a new job and stayed here 3 nights. For the limited cost budget, it was a good option for lodging. The parking situation was a bit difficult. I got my exercise though walking to and from Mercer garage.
