My stay at the hotel was overall enjoyable. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the staff was very friendly and outgoing. The location was convenient for exploring downtown Columbus, Ohio. However, there was a slight concern with the cleanliness of the sheets on one of the queen beds, which gave an unsettling feeling.

Rooms

The rooms were clean and very well presented, with all the facilities we required. However, one of the queen bed sheets did not seem freshly washed, which was a bit unsettling.

The hotel is located in downtown Columbus, Ohio, close to everything and wonderful for visiting downtown. Despite the minor issue with the strong chlorine odor and cloudy appearance in certain areas, it offers a clean and fun experience.

7.8/10

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was convenient, with plenty of dining options nearby, and the evening manager's reception was a great bonus. However, the rooms could use some updating, and there was a bit of noise from nearby storage areas during the night.

Rooms
6.0
The rooms were a bit outdated and could use some updated equipment, like a spin bike. They were not as clean as expected, and being next to a storage closet led to some disturbances during the night.
Service

The service from the front desk to the cleaning staff was great. The staff members were friendly and accommodating, despite the noise warning given for daytime hours.
Location
8.0
The hotel's location was very convenient, with plenty of dining options within walking distance and close proximity to downtown and the airport. However, it didn't quite resemble a true Downtown vibe.
Dining
8.0
The breakfast included in the morning was good with a variety of choices, while the evening snack buffet and happy hour were pleasant surprises.
Facilities
8.0
The in-wall dispensers were a convenient feature, and the pool area was well-maintained.
