Friendly but Rough Condition

At the original check in, the room we were offered already had people staying in the room. Once this was resolved and we got a new room the room we were given was in pretty rough shape. Paint was peeling, the tub faucet had a constant trickle, and the was what looked like a melted starburst on the floor next to the bed. The alarm clock and outlets in the nightstand next to the bed were plugged into an outlet that was switch controlled. Meaning you couldn't set the clock or charge your phone unless the lights were on. I didn't take a lot of photos, but I wanted to make sure we didn't get charged for damage. Overall the bed was fairly comfortable and the staff was friendly but will not be staying there again.

The hotel room we were given had a toilet leak and the floor was wet and got worse if you flushed. The room was not clean but did have an overwhelming scent of bleach that made our eye burn, it was sooo strong. We were not given the option to move rooms but someone came and put a bucket where the toilet was leaking to keep it from going all over the floor.

Was 2.5 miles from the Ohio convention center. Room was clean, bed was comfortable. I am very happy that pillows were not flat. Good amenities in the room had a microwave and a refrigerator. The water in the shower was hot. Adequate parking right outside the room. Check-in/check out process was very easy. The receptionist had great customer service. Breakfast was from 6:30 AM till 9:30 AM. Included a variety of muffins, danishes bread, cereal, hard-boiled eggs, yogurt, juice, coffee, tea, and hot waffles. Room was quiet and could get a good nights sleep. Nice area easy to navigate.
