We loved our stay at Mainstay Suites!!! We were traveling with our 13 year old granddaughter and she LOVED the privacy of the kitchen and pull-out sofa bed being separate from our beds and bathroom. Everyone was super nice!!! The lady in the breakfast area, the guys at the desk and all the maids were extremely nice!!! There was one young black girl, must have been head of housekeeping, (I regret not getting her name.) she had such a welcoming spirit. Always smiling and giving an encouraging word. Even my granddaughters were impressed with this hotel. They asked if I could find another one like this at our next stop. Thanks for a GREAT stay!!!

Paid a very high rate (Taylor Swift Concert night) to basically just get ready for the concert for 20 minutes. Our room smelled like someone had been smoking in it for days, and there was a chewed up piece of gum on the floor in plain sight in our room. Disappointing because I knew the hotel and all hotels in the area were sold out, so I didn’t bother even trying to switch. We had already spent so much money on the hotel and concert and didn’t want to spend more, so my husband and I took turns sleeping and driving and we drove all the way back to Chattanooga, arriving home at 6am.

As good as it can be when you're in Ohio

Bentley is really nice and gave us good information about restaurants close by.

Didn't seem like an area you would find a hotel in, it snuck up on us. Not a terrible area, but not great. Staff was awesome and friendly. Nice, large room, comfortable beds. Cleanliness was definitely lacking. We checked in at 3 am so I didn't say anything when we got there. I'm no clean freak but I went and got a package of Lysol wipes the next morning to wipe things down. Surfaces were dirty (obvious crumbs on nightstand and sticky spots) stains on mattress protector and bottom of the bed, and floors were dirty. If it were clean, I would give it a 9.

Room on Reading Road quite noisy from road.

Very nice room. Bed was a little uncomfortable but it was all great.

The staff were fantastic. Everyone is very friendly and helpful. The entire hotel is spotlessly clean!
4.2
Check in was a breeze. The building is very up to date and was very inviting. The parking lot was great as well. I enjoyed my stay! It was a quick ride to and from the ballpark.
4.2
Brand new hotel, nice fenced parking area, but it fenced for a reason. I felt a little uneasy in the neighborhood. Also my room smelled like cigarettes.
4.2
Very clean. The staff was above and beyond helpful. Great place to stay. Easy to get around.

It was great the pool area was very crowded and the guest were very wild this was the only problem the hotel it self was exceptional. Will use this hotel again but not at spring break time
4.2
Every thing was amazing, food, service, check in was a warm welcome the ladies made me feel like family. Information was given right away about the food offered in the area. Now as far as the comfort of the bed 😞 , mattress needs more cushioning. Other guests were very noisy sounding like someone was banging on something. But other than that A+🤗

Great location close to University of Cincinnati and the Zoo. Quiet and clean. Offers a very nice breakfast buffet too!
4.2
It was a very nice hotel. Breakfast was awesome, pool was great but the floor in our room was dirty. When you didn't have your shoes on you could feel a lot of dirt and had to brush your feet off before getting into bed.
4.2
Overall a great place to stay for the price and location. The shower was a little weird and there was a sticky spot partially under the couch in my room, but everything else was clean and in order
4.2
The hotel looks very nice. Front desk check-in person was very friendly and helpful. The room was large, looked good, but not clean. The pull out sofa bed was not clean and was not made with all the linens to sleep (only had a fitted sheet, no top sheet or cover) and the floors were sticky and visibly dirty.
4.2
Very clean & friendly staff
4.2
Very friendly and helpful staff!
4.2
Making sure the room had everything like correct TV remotes and other normal things was not done. Room not well cleaned either. Since it is less than a mile from Christ Hospital makes it great if you have a friend or family member there.
4.2
Room was acceptable, but not as clean as it could have been. Water pressure low the first evening. Although staff had promised accommodation for early check-in, were not that helpful upon arrival.
4.2
Clise to zoo n downtown

This was a nice and clean place to stay that was close to the college. Very, very nice and helpful staff, trying to do way too much with very little support. Continental breakfast was okay for the value (surprisingly good gravy and biscuits I must say!). The pool could have been a little cleaner (it really needs a going-over), but overall we were very happy with our stay.
4.2
Nice large rooms w full fridge and kitchenette. Nice beds, baths and water pressure. Decent breakfast included.
4.2
Filthy room, dirty washcloths hanging from the shower bar, wiry black hairs on the bath towels and counters, dirty sticky disgusting floors.
4.2
Overall my experience here was OK. If I could give it 3.5 stars I would. Check in was easy and the front desk staff were fantastic. I'd give them 5 stars. The lobby was very clean and there's a mini "market" that has drinks and snacks.
Upon arrive in my room it "looked" clean. The floor hadn't seemed to be mopped and the towels in the bathroom room weren't folded very nicely. This lead me to wonder if the towels had been changed. I opened one of the towels and it had make up stains all over it. The complementary lotion was almost completely empty.
There is a small kitchenette in the room but there were no pots, pans or utensils. The bed was incredibly hard and the pillows were very worn.
It can get a little loud because you're in a busy area but the room had black out shades which were great.
4.2
They stay was nice the rooms were spacious only thing I didn’t like was the power in our room wasn’t working but the manager on duty was so attentive and we gotta extra room free of charge and they free breakfast was pretty awesome I’m daughter loved it I will definitely be returning
4.2
They charge you 10 dollars to park in there lot.
4.2
Didn't like paying for parking! But I did like that it was very close to my daughters apartment for college.
4.2
The room was very dirty,floors looked liked they were cleaned with dirty mop water and smelled the same.Hair in the bathroom sink and wiped on the walls next to bathroom sink and the kitchen counter had food on it by the stove,the road noise was loud all night from cars racing by.Besides the filthy room the rest of our stay was good they had a nice breakfast with a very nice gentleman who did great and the ladies at the front desk were also very nice and informative.The next the manager asked us at breakfast how our room was and I explained to her what was going on and she was not very impressed with her staff and was apologetic for the room and told me to stop by the front desk and she could give me a free night stay but it had to be for a different stay.
4.2
The temperature in the room was 76 degrees the entire stay. The thermostat on the wall did nothing to adjust the temperature. I could not sleep because I was sweating all night; my hair was literally wet with sweat. I showered this morning and then continued to sweat and be miserably uncomfortable while getting ready. The temperature in the hallway was much cooler and I considered propping the door open just to cool down the room. When I went downstairs to ask about this, no one was at the desk.
The breakfast was great this morning but there was no coffee. When I asked about coffee, the lady at the front desk said she was brewing more. I waited 20-30 min but eventually had to leave without coffee.
4.2
Clean and very spacious. The staff was very friendly and helpful. I have nothing negative to say about our room or our stay.
4.2
It was an ok stay. The location was convenient for the purpose of my trip. The room above mine was having a party and I had to call the front desk for complaints. Thanks yo the staff who went to the room, I was able to enjoy some quiet night.
4.2
The building and location are beautiful. The neighborhood is interesting, but that did not take away from our experience. We were within minutes driving to any downtown location we wanted to see, and it was extremely easy to get on the interstate to go a little further out for things like Jungle Jim's and the zoo.
We stayed in what was advertised as a family room and it was perfect for our family of 5 (comfortably handle 6). The breakfast was great, the service was great, and we enjoyed the pool. We had to ask for extras and bedding for the pullout and were immediately accommodated. Very positive experience!
