The lighting system was awful. Must turn on desk and coffee maker by using switch at door. Difficult to control bed lights because of this system. No directions for quirky coffee maker. Hotel ran out of decaf coffee pods and then all coffee. No in room refrigerator though one delivered upon request. Staff confused about where to place it. Shower spray was so weak it took long time to rinse hair. Shower leaked all over floor... leaked at base of shower onto floor outside shower. Took two huge towels to sop up. Staff attempted to repair but did not work. Restaurant breakfast service was friendly and polite but slow. Room was dark and dreary. On the bright side, there was more than adequate shelf space around sink, which was a real pleasure. And entire staff was cheery and responsive. I have rarely had to call desk for help but called 8 times during my stay here. Family staying in room next door had shower that was so fast it hurt them! had similar complaints about lighting ... one tiny window in rooms and no overhead lights . The museum aspect was nice and very interesting but did not compensate for the quirkiness of the rooms.

I was pretty excited for my stay at the 21C Hotel in Cincinnati, however when I got to my room, I was quickly met with issue after issue. The room itself was completely underwhelming. It was didn’t match the “light and airy” feel that was pictured on the website. Additionally we had a broken window shade, the phone wasn’t plugged it, and stained robes. Additionally we quickly found out that there were other inconveniences such as no access to an ice machine-you have to call a request someone bring a bag of ice. Additionally if you want to chill something, you can’t because there is no functioning mini fridge, however there is a non functioning mini bar fridge that can’t be accessed and in our case was a broken machine just sitting in the way in our room. The saving grace of this trip was the staff. Everyone was so helpful and understanding. We had our robes replaced, our window shade fixed, a mini fridge brought to our room, and traded our stained robes. I personally don’t like coming to a hotel, especially for a romantic get away, and experiencing so many inconveniences in one stay but the staff did their best to accommodate. I likely will never revisit this hotel in the future.

Would not recommend

This was one of the most uncomfortable hotels I’ve ever stayed in. The room smelled like mold as soon as we walked in the door, the room felt dirty, the bed and sheets were awful! The sheets were literally scratchy on my skin. The hallways are dirty. Not only would I never stay here again, I would never recommend it to anyone ever.

21C in Cincinnati was a wonderful experience. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The room was clean, comfortable and stylish. It was also a little larger than many King bed rooms we have stayed in recently. Also loved the art displayed in the museum.

Disappointing

We stay at this hotel frequently. Room was very average probably because we used a third party booking site. Charged a 5 dollar sustainability fee at check out which is super annoying.
