Travel tips

If you want morning coffee or breakfast in-room, plan ahead: reviews note the lack of a coffee maker, so many guests rely on nearby fast-food/coffee options down the street. Most nearby attractions (John Rankin House, John Parker House, The Ripley Museum) are a couple of kilometers away, making a car the most practical way to get around. For longer-distance travel, Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport is roughly 80 km from the motel.
