voco The Clair Cincinnati Downtown by IHG
Everyone was very nice and helpful. Our room was very nice and the extra stay heads in the shower were a real treat for my aching back. Dinner was outstanding and I guess that is why we were so disappointed in breakfast. Better tasting and larger variety at a Hampton Inn and it’s free there.
