Average stay

It was a ok stay. I was a little blind sighted by the $250 insurance payment I had to pay at check in. I thought that payment would be refunded once they saw that the room was not damaged, but I received nothing back. The rooms are a bit small but comfortable enough for the family to sleep in. If the insurance had been explained better i would give a better review

We had a great stay overall but our room 714 has a horrible musty mildewy smell. I did not say anything until we left. I knew they were booked full because of the event.. so I explained when we left that they need not to rent that room until issue is fixed. I have breathing issues and am feeling the affect of the damp musty room.. our belongings also smell.. Horrible and unhealthy!!

The room decor with its Ohio State University theme is fun, but, typical of small, urban hotels, the room was small, with little room to open our suitcases. The staff was pleasant and helpful. If we stay here again, I must consider upgrading to a larger room or suite. The location in the Short North is convenient and the room was quiet, despite all the activity on the street.

Satisfactory

There was some sweeping under the beds that needed done byt other than that the room was clean and maid service was on top of things. When we needed ice we got ice. They told us about a party in the terrace that was going on that saturday if our stay. Everyone was super friendly.
