“The Westin Cincinnati's location places it squarely for business and downtown exploration, though some room elements appear inconsistent with its four-star status. I noted the gym is compact but serviceable, and the staff generally provides a warm welcome. While the location and accessible fitness facilities offer value, attention to detail in room maintenance could elevate the stay.”
