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.

Great stay
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.

Modern room with full amenities and super customer service! I accidentally left behind a sundress hanging on a hook on the bathroom door. The next day I called and someone from the front desk checked the room, found my clothing item, saved it for me in a bag marked with my name and room number, and I was able to come pick it up two weeks later. Thank you!

Good hotel
It's a nice hotel and in a decent part of the city. The hotel/room/breakfast were all ok, nothing super special but nothing bad. For the price and the area I was happy with it and was impressed with how quiet it was in the rooms. If I needed to stay in the area again then I would likely stay here.
