I live in Puerto Rico but I’m from Columbus and still own a business here. We recently sold our home in Columbus so I stayed at Staybridge Suites for the last two weeks. The suite had everything I needed including a full kitchen with a full size fridge. Everything was extremely clean when I arrived and the customer service was awesome for my entire stay. The best part was how well insulated the rooms are. I was a little nervous because I’m a light sleeper and the slightest noise usually wakes me up. I usually stay in an Airbnb because of that but I didn’t have any issues whatsoever. Once I was in the room and shut the door I didn’t hear any noise at all. It was also considerably cheaper than my usual Airbnb so I will definitely be staying here from now on! I usually come back to Columbus every couple of months for a couple of weeks to check on our business so I’ll be a frequent guest in the future!

No seating in kitchen, non sufficient seating in room. Our room they checked us in, not ready, NO towels, no toilet paper but the measly left from previous guests. Air conditioner screen was popped up out of unit; bathroom was sub standard, no where to put anything on a counter . Bathroom door opened directly into room, literally 2 feet from bed. Fan in bathroom was not working. priced. if you were in Marriott but hotel was not up to that standard. They had mattresses store in stairwell. husband had to climb over a king mattress to access door. only 1 room bathrooms for men and/ or women off the breakfast dining area in lobby floor.

The property had evidence of water damage and with every shower, you could see why. The tiny shower in our room leaked so heavily we had to leave towels down so the carpet didn’t get wet. The shampoo, conditioner, and hand soap comes in refillable bottles, so you’re using the same bottles as all the previous guests. The breakfast is similar, nothing is pre-packaged/portioned individually other than the butter jam and syrup. Everything else is out and on an open buffet display. Only the hot food had covers. I did like the rotating breakfast options from day to day. The dressers in the rooms had drawers that rolled open at random. The bedroom door design was flawed and the door was very hard to close/lock. Had asked for a extra linens prior to check in as the reservation was for three adults and no linens for the pull-out were provided until a call post check in which took over an hour to receive after a second call was placed. The parking lot is very small and was always almost completely full.

Ok stay.

Just mehhh. Small parking lot, room service came in 1X while we were there, which was fine, however, they didn’t take garbage, and took towels, etc only to replace with 3 towels and nothing else. Even took blanket from pullout couch? Barely enough parking places, super tight if driving a big truck. Staff was friendly and seemed clean enough. Our shower door didn’t even come close to closing and water pressure was not good.
