King sized bed instead of two queens. Needed a rollaway cot. Never brought it. Had to go down to remind them. Cot was horrible!!

Nice hotel. Awful breakfast.

5.0 / 10.0

Everything about the hotel was excellent!

5.0 / 10.0

Convenient for OSU visit - we only stayed a short overnight duration. Restaurant options needed a drive.

4.0 / 10.0

The breakfast menu was good, eggs and potatoes were a bit dry. The location, room, and parking were all great. We would stay there again.

2.0 / 10.0

Pretty bad shape for this hotel. Wish I did my research before staying here, plus $20 parking fee overnight ?

5.0 / 10.0

Overall, clean hotel and good service.

4.0 / 10.0

Nice stay, good location. Beds were not the most comfortable. Need more outlets. Very basic room but it works for a quick stay.

3.0 / 10.0

Didn’t know until check in that parking was $15.00. Room nice. Extremely loud from highway out front with cars and motorcycles

4.0 / 10.0

The place was super nice. The bed was completely comfortable. My only suggestion is I wish the front desk would ask for ID when giving replacement key cards.

2.0 / 10.0

No

2.0 / 10.0

Broken faucet knob, hidden fees, and poor customer service. When coming into Columbus, this was our go to hotel but this will be the last time. We always book a room with a Jacuzzi and was informed at arrival time there was an extra deposit for the Jacuzzi room, this being our third time at this hotel with said Jacuzzi room, and was never told about an extra deposit. Service desk said there has always been a 100.00 cash deposit for these rooms but it is now 200.00. I explained we’ve been getting these rooms since 2023 and never had to pay deposit. So either this is something new or in the past times an employee was not informed of this/ doing their job properly. It would also take several tries to get the room keys to work.

1.0 / 10.0

Loud, not clean, bad condition.

4.0 / 10.0

Super nice staff, very clean and comfortable rooms. Wifi was hard to connect to because they don't clarify which network is theirs and due to there being several businesses and hotels in the area, it's hard to figure out. Small issue in an otherwise lovely stay!

4.0 / 10.0

Loved the newness of everything in lobby and the rooms. Didn’t love the quality of the breakfast food, specially the cooked items. Cheese omelets looked like rubber. French toast was unappealingly hard especially the edges/crust. The pancake machine produced disgusting in taste and looks pancakes that were inedible.

2.0 / 10.0

Check-in was awkward. The gentleman seemed preoccupied. As we were checking in he informed us there is an additional $15 fee for the advertised "Free Parking". No explanation, just pay it! The room was spacious and fairly cleen but was not handicap accessible as requested. One of the elevators was broken as well as the only vending machine on the floor. If you can tolerate motorcycles drag racing and thin walls it's all you. Spend a little money and go across the street and visit Sonic for eats, you’ll thank sorself. Knowing it is an Express we didn't have grest expectations. I don't believe we will return.

2.0 / 10.0

This hotel charges for parking extra, which was not disclosed by hotels.com and neither in their bill details. Although the hotel checkin will extort $20 per night. So make sure whatever is the deal with parking before you book!!

5.0 / 10.0

Great place, but the pool needed some attention. Other than that, it was fine.

6.0 / 10.0

Had to pay for parking, which was unexpected. One of the elevators was not working, leading to longer wait times and jams at the elevator entrance. The fridge in the room was not working. The rooms that we took had good space for a family of 5. The chance of me going back is 35%.

6.0 / 10.0

Hotel was nice, it was convenient the bed was comfortable, staff were friendly, breakfast was good and the pool was great esp the adult hours. However, I’m a bit disappointed that the hotel wasn’t very clean. Our bedding had stains, the bathroom needing some wiping down, it wasn’t stocked and some things had been left behind from previous guest which would imply the housekeeping aren’t thoroughly cleaning. And they charge to park in the parking lot which is weird.

8.0 / 10.0

We found the staff friendly helpful and efficient and the facility neat clean and comfortable

2.0 / 10.0

We were immediately hit with parking fees. Desk staff was rude and disrespectful and knows nothing about hospitality. Management harassed me with unwanted sarcastic texts. I let them know that I would not be using the parking lot for the second night and they told me that I would be issued a refund after the attendant scanned the parking lot for my vehicle. We were not provided with housekeeping even though we requested it upon check in. No apology just scolding from manager via text that I should have requested it which I did. Absolutely atrocious attitudes of manager and front desk personnel. I will be making monthly trips to Columbus for the next four years and I will never stay at this awful place again. There are many places to stay without hidden fees and I will be treated like a guest,not harassed by nasty unprofessional employees

3.0 / 10.0

WiFi couldn’t connect, we got locked out of our room for 3 hours because the battery died. But they just kept making me run up to the room to try new keys and come back to the front desk (with my three children) to tell them that key also didn’t work. I went back and forth 5 times before they even offered to check it out. Then they went up and the battery was dead on the door so the key was never the problem. Told us we had to wait on maintenance. Waited a while. Never got an apology or any offer for the inconvenience. They charged $20 for parking. The bath tub literally as soon as we checked in had hair and grime in it. Again, no apology or anything. The breakfast buffet consisted of two hot items, the rest was cereal and muffins. Overall just not a good stay. Paid $700 for two nights.

4.0 / 10.0

The breakfast was good, but when I made the reservation didn’t say anything about a parking fee and that was the main reason I choose that hotel and when I got there I had to pay an $80 parking fee 💀

10.0 / 10.0

We asked to be moved to another room due to a musty smell in the bathroom, most likely shower curtain. The front desk clerk was most accommodating and moved us to another room with no conflict. Very professional and friendly.

Nothing below satisfactory

4.0 / 10.0

The staff just seems incompetent or preoccupied I checked in rather late No one was there however I was still issue the wrong keys Then I got to the room and there was no bed sheet for the pull out bed which explains why there were two people at the front desk when I was checking in asking for toilet tissue and bedding. Everything is literally subpar from the service to the amenities. It's extremely overpriced if you asked me. I got here after 10:00 p.m. was still issued the wrong room and had to go all the way back downstairs to get new keys only to have to come back downstairs to get bedding. Looking forward to seeing at House of hard the food is in the morning. I would not book this place for more than $120. And I paid over $200 if you plan on parking prepared for the $10 parking fee also incidentals which I was not made aware of prior to checking in. You can tell it's an older building and they just do not seem to keep up with it as they should The furniture is warm the walls and ceilings are worn it has potential but it's not worth the cost.

5.0 / 10.0

I was only there for one night, so I can't speak too much on all the amenities, but overall the entire hotel was very clean and well-maintained and certainly a good option to stay in Columbus - cheaper than downtown, but still close enough to the city core that nothing is too far.

8.0 / 10.0

Staff was friendly and pleasant. Breakfast was really good. Pool was a little small. Overall, good hotel.

10.0 / 10.0

Clean hotel and location is good

2.0 / 10.0

Upon our arrival, our reservation was canceled. They said they notified Expedia to notify me which did not happen After driving six hours to get to our hotel, they had canceled it. But then offered the same room at a higher rate Which at that point I was not interested in.

1.0 / 10.0

The room was filthy and when I told someone about it I was told it would be deep cleaned but no one showed up. The next day I said again and one of the manager on duty showed up, took pictures and again guaranteed to somebody would come and do a deep clean. They finally showed up and still I had to call and ask for more cleaning because I was here in the bathroom on the walls before we left, there was hair on the ceiling before we left the air conditioner went out in the bleeding. The office manager on duty was extremely rude. I did not know she was a manager on duty. She just told me she put it on the books for maintenance to come and look at it. Finally it was fixed. Might this day at this hotel was absolutely horrible and I will never recommend this chain to anybody.

6.0 / 10.0

Nice enough hotel. Nothing too fancy, would stay again. Price was fair for a 2 bedroom suite. AC was very loud and annoying annd the bed end table missing from the wall. Towels never collected or replenished. Front desk 10/10. Hotel was nice and quiet. Breakfast was ok.

10.0 / 10.0

We had a good night's sleep.

10.0 / 10.0

Everything was good except one thing. Plenty of parking, good food close by, staff were friendly and informative, clean. The only drawback was a car being broken into over night.

8.0 / 10.0

I think some of the couches in the lobby were shabby looking. Bathrooms were okay.

10.0 / 10.0

Close to Schottenstein Center, OSU, and restaurants and easy to visit Franklin Conservatory and the rose garden. Everything was clean, people were friendly, and it was well run. We liked the eggs and potatoes for breakfast.
