Very nice accommodations for a TRU. Had a 2nd floor room and was very pleased with the cleanliness of the room & bathroom. Hot water came fast. Breakfast was very good. I really like the pancake machine.

Okay not a 5 star place but 1) This place is EXACTLY what I was looking for - but better. 2) I had a puppy with me. He’s very obedient. But $75 a night. 3). Next to I-75 4) Free breakfast and coffee. 5) No carpets to worry about.

Maybe the area will be fixed up when the construction around is done. We had no problems . The front desk lady wasn't the friendlyist .the indoor pool was kinda strong with the chlorain. And the bed was that comfortable. But not a bad experience..just wouldn't be my first choice.

Reservation under Charlotte Dockery, I seen people say help desk was not to friendly, maybe they are shy but they both was very friendly to me, I had booked 1 night, but end up staying another night, breakfast was hot and fresh, I love the pancake maker and the special strawberry pancake fixing to make the valentine pancake special, pool is to high of chlorine, my ring got ruined in the water, and the TV in the rooms are huge! This will be my home away from home when I want to relax away from my responsibilities and have a home/vacation Did I mention this hotel is bug free!!!!

We've decided Tru has nailed the essence of what travelers want at a decent price. Beds were comfy, room layout was good & big enough, bathroom was clean, floor was hard-surface (way too many hotels have very sketchy carpet stains and stickiness), lobby was inviting, staff was welcoming. (I'd love to say the breakfast was tasty, as other reviews have pointed out, but all four of us slept too late to experience breakfast - that's surely a good sign the beds are comfy.) This was in a great location for everything we wanted to do in northern Cincy. Thanks, Tru!

This is truly the most beautiful, relaxing and peaceful stay at a Tru by Hilton that I have had the pleasure of lodging. The staff was wonderful and so accommodating each day we were there. Because we had to stay several days over, the guest service personnel never showed any signs of being dissatisfied with any questions of re-booking that I were asking. The breakfast staff are so beautiful with assisting with you especially with that space age pancake maker which I was absolutely excited to use each and everyday the selections of food was hot and delicious every morning. Housekeeping service absolutely wonderful and adorable. Thank you for the hospitality while I were in Sharonville, Ohio.

Very clean but staff weren't friendly which is odd because I encountered quite a few within my visit. The initial guy at check in was helpful but after that downhill. Great hotel overall but the staff, no microwave in the room or closet space did it for me. But there is a pool table and restrooms on main floor that adds to it

Overall nice experience and very friendly staff. The Breakfast was great and there was alot of variety. My main caveats would have to be (all personal preferences), I thought the mattress that we slept on was a little on the firm side. Normally this isn't something that I'm picky about. So some people have to sleep with a fan or something running in the background and yes I'm aware that the hotel isn't responsible for providing that fan noise, but alot of times the fan/heater/ac in the room is adequate enough, not this one because I could not for life of me figure out how to switch it off Auto/15min intervals. So it was alternating from fan noise, to absolute silence every 15 minutes. But Overall great experience and would stay again, the staff, cleanliness and breakfast more than made up for the two minor inconveniences and honestly I was trying to break a midnight shift sleep cycle at the same time.
