Arrow DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Cincinnati Airport {US-KY}

There does not seem to be a thread for this property so I thought I'd quickly put down a placeholder with a few notes. I thought this to be an excellent airport property, particularly in comparison to the CVG "Airport" Hilton, which is much further away, seems to offer lesser benefits, and people seem to describe as generally decrepit.

Location couldn't be any better. I suppose they offer a shuttle or such, but the property can be accessed via a less than 5 minute walk through the CVG parking garage.

The property seems to be newly renovated and has nice fresh finishes in the common areas and guest rooms. There are two areas of rooms - those in the main tower and then an annex wing which is two stories. The latter is nice and quiet.

No cookie at check-in, they were "all out". Third DT in a row! But to the property's credit, unlike the other DTs, this one preemptively suggested that we take some snacks from the shop to compensate. That was a nice gesture.

As others have mentioned in the master breakfast thread, if the occupancy is low as it was in our case, they switch to open ordering off the breakfast menu. "Anything you want", and as much of it, and they mean it too. We were in a hurry and just stuck to American breakfasts, luckily for the property. Given a little more time we certainly would have hung around and taken them up on their offer.

Overall, great sleep, great breakfast, great location; doesn't get much better for an airport hotel.
