Great bar
Pros:

After going to dinner we came back to enjoy a few drinks and watch the World Cup. The bar was great not only was it beautifully designed the bartenders were both wonderful. Justin was attentive and friendly. And I usually choose to have a glass of wine and the selections were great. I also noticed that the glass was inspected before my wine was poured which is a sign of a great bar. Thanks Justin.

The Best Hotel in Columbus
Pros:

James the bartender was absolutely great — polite, professional, and personable. The location is perfect, sitting just a little off campus so you can enjoy the area without all the usual chaos. The atmosphere throughout the hotel is inviting and enjoyable.I’ve stayed at multiple Marriotts in the area, and this one is by far the best. The value is outstanding. The gym is excellent, the breakfast in the morning is spot‑on, and the rooms are high quality and comfortable.
