Nice hotel but rip off for parking on game day!
Our room was clean and the staff were very friendly. Breakfast was good as well My only complaint was the cost of parking on game day! $40 cash when your staying at the hotel is a rip off. You can park much closer for 1/3 to half the price. Parking right down the street by McDonald's is only $20.

Comfortable
Check in was easy, room was comfortable. We had an issue with the only light in the shower/toilet room was out and new lightbulb couldn’t be found. It was late and no maintenance staff. Lamp was brought in with extension cord so we had light in there. Just not sure how housekeeping staff could miss the light not working when they cleaned in there.

There was only one washrag and no toothpaste or extra linens, and the curtains were sheer. I would have preferred the option of heavier or darker curtains. However the room was nice and the kitchen was convenient.

Nice place. Price was appropriate. Breakfast was good, though just above basic. Place and room were clean. No smells. Kitchenet was very nice! Plenty of room. Beds were good. For a mid priced hotel, very good. Great location to stay for a home OSU game weekend.

COMPLETE NIGHTMARE
No. DO NOT BOOK HERE! I ITS A SCAM This place in my opinion is a Bait and switch con artists run operation that overbook, over charge and blatantly lie. We arrived at hotel. We were told they were doing construction and didn't have enough rooms for us. They wanted us to stay in a run down property next door for close to $500 for the night. We said no and they said we had no choice. we were basically homeless until 10pm that evening when we finally found a HYATT on our own that had rooms. Now I have to dispute a $500 charge for a 1 night stay we didn’t do because a room that wasn’t available I was charged to our card. COMPLETE NIGHTMARE

I stay here often when i come to columbus to visit my kids and itsgot the best beds and you control your room temperature and its usually pretty clean so i was surprised that this time that the shower was dirty and the toilet handle was put on wrong so it was hard to flush. I had my grandson with me and they put there knifes on the bottom of the cupboard so that could of been a horrible night so if you travel with little ones check.

Conveniently located near the university campus, this hotel was comfortable for our one-week stay. The rooms are renovated and spacious with everything we needed. Beds were comfortable and the shower had very good pressure. Breakfast had plenty of variety and the staff extremely friendly. Highly recommend!

We came to stay here for the weekend to see sexy red and this hotel was dirty! The pull out bed had hair all on the sheets like maybe an animal been in it. Upon settling in to the hotel we seen two roaches in the kitchen! We called front desk they said we don’t have bugs I said I can assure you that I just seen two roaches crawling across the counter! If you see one believe there’s more around and in other rooms! They offered to come “spray” the room. We took all our belongings back to the car and slept one night and LEFT! I wouldn’t recommend AT ALL!

You can tell the property is made to look nice but it isn’t. There was mold in the shower, the couch in our room was covered with blonde hair and stains. There was a giant purple stain on the carpet. Breakfast was stale. I overall did not feel clean my entire stay.
