Leisure & Business

This hotel goes the extra mile to provide guests with fitness classes to help them stay fit.

“In my opinion, this hotel clearly tries to balance affordability with convenience, placing guests near Columbus's convention hub and downtown attractions; amenities like in-room microwaves and pet-friendly policies stand out. However, reports of inconsistent front desk service and cleanliness issues suggest management may need to refocus on essential services. Its core location and value proposition remain appealing, but service consistency seems critical.”
