Top Franklin Hotel Reviews

Drury Inn & Suites Cincinnati Sharonville

10/10 Excellent

"Employees are very nice, room and other areas of the hotel are clean. Food is great! Great price! Only complaint is that the chlorine level in their hot tub was even worse this time than it was a month ago when we stayed. It burns eyes before getting in with just being in the room. I brought up my last visit this time and was told that they had added water because of multiple other guests complaints about it recently; I was told the levels are checked daily but that's hard to believe with how high the chlorine level was both times we have stayed. This absolutely needs to be fixed! Other than keeping the hot tub situation in mind, I recommend the hotel."
