Cleanliness
5.5
Mixed reports: some guests described rooms as clean, but at least one guest reported a dirty room and cobwebs above beds, pulling the cleanliness sentiment down.
Service
9.2
Mostly positive interactions (friendly staff, ease of check-in/out, staff assistance) but marred by several serious service failures (rude desk staff, double-booking and key problems); overall leans positive due to multiple mentions of helpful personnel.
Location
9.5
Frequently praised as ideal for travelers and convenient; a few notes about being outside Columbus, but overall location is a clear positive.
Room Quality
9
Guests appreciated comfortable, cool rooms and strong AC; some preferences (would prefer walk-in shower) and an isolated report of a dirty room affect this slightly, but room comfort was generally highlighted.
Amenities
8.6
Limited amenities feedback: pool noted as small (negative), but in-room AC and breakfast amenities were positively mentioned; overall amenities are adequate for this property.
Value for Money
5.5
Value impacted by operational issues: cancelled reservations, no-refund experiences and booking problems reduced perceived value for affected guests.
Food and Beverage
9
Breakfast was repeatedly praised (good breakfast) though some guests objected to disposable plates/utensils; overall breakfast quality was a strong positive.
Overall Experience
8.5
Mixed overall: many guests reported a comfortable stay with good breakfast and helpful staff, but a subset experienced serious service and cleanliness issues that negatively impacted their experience.

We got in late and appreciated a clean, comfortable, and cool room; had to wake up early and enjoyed a nice breakfast be
Pros:

Location, ease of check-in/out, good breakfast, great AC in room

Cons:

Keys didn’t work morning after check in. Gave us a new key that didn’t work. The lady from front desk had to come to our room with a master key. Not a big deal, just an inconvenience.
