The staff was courteous. The breakfast was good. It was nice to have a free drink at the bar. It was a bit noisy outside at midnight and at four am from other guests. The room could use a bit of maintenance as well.

Great price, sweet spot. Room was clean, check in easy, I requested a room upstairs and was given one. Thank you! Love how the rooms and parking are set back from the street. Even liked the trains. The free drink and real breakfast made this place really special. Did I mention that it's walking distance to downtown and Riverfront Park? Thanks Hotel Ruby for a great stay!

Room was okay with the exception of the numerous hairs on my sheets that weren't mine. Shower was very good, nice pressure and the bed was comfortable. Didn't have the free breakfast or the nightly entertainment package that I was obligated to pay for. Didn't feel comfortable walking around after dark due to high homeless numbers in the area.

The room was clean- but it did smell wildly of marijuana despite being a non smoking room, which wasn’t very pleasant. Otherwise everything was great! Staff was super nice.

The first staff member that checked us in flung both my ID and debit card and hotel keys at us on the counter instead of just handing it to us. There was one (1) visibly soiled towel available. I did love Rosie's food, but next time I can just go there without staying at this "hotel".
