Nice hotel great location
Hotel was nice great location close to restaurants and businesses room was kind of dark but it was a loft setup so kind of tough to light that up well. If there for multiple days make sure and ask for extra towels cause they dont service the room unless you ask. Would definitely stay again.

This property include fees that you can't opt out of when you're not interested. Also, this property has rooms that do not smell pleasant. Furthermore, this property has adjacent rooms that allow noise to come thru the walls.. We will not stay at this overrun in the future, nor will we refer this place to anyone visiting the Columbus Ohio area.
