On site restaurant was very handy, however they were severely understaffed with the amount of customers waiting to be served . The front desk staff was very helpful to this senior that had no idea how to get an Uber along with answering other questions we had.

The hotel staff were very friendly and helpful. Parking was easy and in lot behind the hotel. It was very clean foyer with nice areas to sit. There is a restaurant that smelled delicious. There was a lot of people staying on the night we were there but it was very quiet in the room. The room was clean but the bathroom needed some attention. I would most likely stay again.

Overall a clean and affordable option for staying in downtown Columbus. The staff was efficient and courteous. The beds were more firm than we like, but plenty of pillows and bath linens. There was a rather stale smell to the room but after a while it either disappeared or we became nose-blind. All in all it was a decent room for a reasonable cost.

Checkin went smoothly w Victoria. I’ve been having upper respiratory issues and asked about using a vaporizer. She was very helpful telling me that that would set off the smoke alarms. I asked about using Vicks Vapo Shower bomb and she said that would work. Well once I stepped into the shower thankfully I looked up and saw mold was over 1/2 the head. By this time all I wanted was a shower and my bed. Luckily I could change the shower head pattern to avoid the areas of mold. I know not a good idea but I did and went immediately to sleep. I did take a photo and showed the front desk staff in the morning so they could have the issues fixed. Otherwise the room was quiet. Bed soft w plenty of soft pillows. The a/c did make “weird” noises during the night and it didn’t seem to get really cold but then all I wanted to do was crash.
GROSS 🤢🤮

Air conditioner was set to heat and on.... it averaged 66 degrees. I was afraid to adjust it. The unit made all kinds of noises. Coffee machine didn't work. Was replaced within minutes. Refrigerator was broken. Didn't report. Hair found between the sheets.
