Walked to the concert at the shoe….easy walk, no need for an uber. Breakfast was good and had the basics. Staff friendly and helpful. Room was clean and comfortable. Please address the following at the gym: NO wipes to wipe down equipment. NO hand sanitizer. NO AED in the gym—the posting says to call the front desk for a first aid kit but if someone has a cardiac event they will need more than a first aid kit.

We stayed here with a group of four adults and two children, and the space worked really well for us. There was room for everyone to spread out comfortably, which made the stay easy and enjoyable. The hotel was clean, which we really appreciated, and overall it felt like a good value for the price point. The amenities matched expectations—nothing overly luxurious, but everything we needed was there. The breakfast was fine and did the job, and the staff stood out as especially friendly and helpful throughout our stay. There were a few downsides. The beds were just okay—not the most comfortable—and the pull-out sofa was quite poor, which could be an issue depending on your group’s sleeping arrangements. Also worth noting: the pool towels were surprisingly small. Overall, this was a solid, comfortable stay that met our needs well, especially for a larger group traveling together at an affordable price point.

Nice place to stay passing through columbus

Passing through Columbus and this was a convenient and nice place to spend the night. Complimentary breakfast and even an evening taco bar was a nice touch.
