Just okay
Check-in and out were smooth. The shower handle was extremely loose and almost fell off while using it. None of the trash cans had liners in them. The third floor did not have an ice machine. There was a floor length mirror that was half way covering an outlet. Some of the outlets did not work. The shelf in the bathroom was crooked as well.

2/10 Poor

Not safe
We paid parking fee and parked our pickup truck just infront of the reception desk. But our stuff in the truck bed were stolen. We reported to the hotel hoping they check the security camera but never got answer. Then they did not even answer my phone calls. Feel so disappointed with this **** hotel!

Happy and Satisfied Customer
We chose this hotel because of the close proximity of the venue we were attending. It was easy to get to and the check in process was quick and easy. The staff upon arrival was nice and greeted us with a smile. The hotel smelled clean and looked newer. The room was spacious and clean. The morning of my reservation, I received a text from a staff member and I thought that was very nice and pleasant on behalf of the hotel. Upon my arrival and after check in, I received another text offering assistance if needed. Another kind gesture. Overall, I highly recommend if you’re in the downtown Columbus area and needs a place to stay, you will not be disappointed booking here.

Great basic hotel
Convenient, no frills stay in a great location right at the edge of German Village. Parking lot is next to the Sherman Williams next to the hotel. Well lit and did not have any issues with safety even when getting back to the hotel late (10 pm to 11 pm).
