Sherrece young couple November 25, 2024
Positives: It’s sad because if you have a address in Columbus you can stay here I went all the way to the hotel just to get turned around which is sad if somebody from Columbus messed it up for others charge a higher deposit that’s all it’s suck we all have to suffer I been to plenty of hotels and i don’t understand why allow us to book a room to drive 30 mins and be turned around
Negatives: Me driving 30 mins and couldn’t stay here because my address is in columbus

Lee review category business travellers November 23, 2024
Positives: Location.
Negatives: Although booking said pet friendly, they charge 75 per dog. For 1 night - I paid 84 for 2 humans. That was steep. If you’re staying 6 days it’s still 75 which isn’t bad. There was a young lady at the property who had a guitar on her back. I’m guessing she may have been homeless. They wouldn’t allow me to pay for a room for her for the night. They said she had to be local since on foot with a guitar and although they had open rooms at 11pm, I wasn’t allowed to pay for her room. So if you live near Columbus and looking for a room - say for a game - they don’t rent to people from about 10 towns near Columbus. There is NO breakfast.
