Staff at the hotel was terrific, especially Jerri at the front desk and Marjean at the breakfast room. The room was clean with great amenities including a full size refrigerator. Our only complaint was that the pillows are too soft!

We had a great stay. Just 1 night on a road trip. We did not need access to the OSU campus but the location was good. Parking was OK. The room was clean and comfortable. Access to the bar/restaurant at the attached Marriott was a perk. The breakfast was great.

From check-in to check-out husband and I had a great overnight stay. We got in about 10pm but were checked in quickly and courteously. The room was clean, spacious and had a nice comfortable bed. The hotel was quiet the entire night and we slept soundly until 9am. We had a 12pm check-out so made some coffee and lounged until it was time to head out. We would 100% stay here again- and I think we’ve only said that about a few other places over the course of our lifetimes!
