If you are going to book for an event you should be prepared to be flooded with guests. My room was reserved and PAID FOR months before iur checkin. Yet our room was not ready as well as 200 other people that were checking in. We were put on a waitlist to be called when it was ready. 3 hours later no phone call. I got changed in a bathroom stall with 10 other girls who had no room yet. It was so hot inside my hair was soaked from sweat. I couldnt even clean up before our event that started at 5pm. That ruined my experience. We waited to try to check in at 4pm our room wasnt ready. Your policy is 4pm check in. Im not sure I would reccommed if you have any sort of timing itinerary. Other than that our room was nice. Clean and comfortable.

The staff and location were great. The conditions of the building are showing signs of aging and need updates. The thermostat broke in the middle of the night so our room got pretty toasty. Also, during high traffic checkout times, the elevators are next to impossible to get on. We finally gave up after waiting 20 minutes for an elevator car and walked down several flights of stairs with all our luggage. With all that being said, when I visit Columbus, this will be the hotel my family stays at due to the wonderful staff and great location. The pool set up is a great bonus as well, I just wish it was open later.

The staff were so friendly and helpful even when we decided to extend our stay, they helped us work through the “”hiccups” of the process. The hot tub is way too cold and I think the pool hours should be until 10-11. Other than that, everything was excellent.
