Hidden Fees, Not ideal parking

Parking fees seem to be hidden. Parking situation is confusing, Air conditioner sounded very strange, Refrigerator didn't work, TV was unplugged, staff was not friendly, Coffee was frequently unavailable in the am. They also changed tax on the hidden 50 dollar deposit you pay at checkin which is odd

Good location for goong to arena.

Great location for walking to arena. Has the tavern right there so food and drink were easy. Parking is tricky if you have never done it. Room was clean and water pressure was good with hot water. Tub was a liitle cramped for talker people and curtain wasnt loned so water gets all over floor. Coffe machine was not working properly so ended up with an empty cup.

We stayed here for a night and honestly it was better than we expected. The location is really good. Walkable to downtown. We went for a soccer game and the stadiums are not far. We walked there and everything was fine. Safe area and the room was really clean. If I came to Columbus again, I would definitely look at this Hotel.

It Is What It Is

It has been a while since we stayed here, and it was the cheapest option for a brief overnight visit while we went to a game in town. The rooms are very dark and turning on the lights barely helps. Check-in was incredibly slow and watch for the hidden "safe fee", be sure to tell them at checkout that you did not use it so you get your money back. They definitely raised the parking rate from last time we were here, it is $19 a night now and honestly, that is just a couple bucks under the valet fees of local competitors, where you can stay with more amenities for not that much more per night as well. Overall, the stay was fine, the rooms were clean, and we like the area. I would just seriously weigh all of the options before outwardly picking this hotel versus others in the area.

For the event the stay was sufficient. The air in room was not the best but it was manageable especially during a heat wave. Front desk couldn’t help with misc things but ok….no problem.
