Great staff- not so great building
The staff were polite and respectful. The breakfast was good and the lady working it was nice and kept everything clean. Our room was not very clean. The bed was horrible! One side had a giant dip/hole in the mattress that you just sunk into. The shower water ran all over the bathroom floor. The staff are good. The building needs work.

Not a bad stay for a quick 1 night stay over
Front desk agent was great. I arrived late but she was very professional and polite. After check in I went back to her to purchase a few waters and gatorades and she remembered me and was friendly. The room was ok. Good size but was dated. The bed was comfy and sheets were clean. The bathroom def needs some updating and we found a few stray hairs on the counter but otherwise it was a good stay. The area seemed a little sketchy but it seemed as if they had a security team on staff.

Uh....NO
Hotel is in a very sketchy area of Columbus, OH. I would not go out in the dark there even to just get in my car. Once I got in my room, I used Door Dash for meals and stayed put. Room needed some maintenance, and had very poor lighting. Staff was, however, very pleasant and helpful.

One bed had spots on the sheets and there was open snack packs in the laundry cabinet. Other than that, everything was perfect. The guy who came in to change the sheets was really nice and professional. Everyone I spoke to was very professional and polite.

Never come here.
Terrible area, drug deals in parking lot. Workers hung out next to dumpster with a baby for a long time before coming back inside to check the front desk. Room had poop smeared on the wall in bathroom. Pubic hair was on the bed with stains. Entire hotel had strong marijuana odor. Homeless people sleeping in parking lot
