One of the lights didn't work. There was trash stuffed into cabinets. The dishes were all dirty with food or other things on it. There was no ice. Coffe machine in room was broken. Aggressively knocking on our door for a couple minutes, an hour before checkout. Vent in the bathroom of our room didnt work.

Staff at the hotel was terrific, especially Jerri at the front desk and Marjean at the breakfast room. The room was clean with great amenities including a full size refrigerator. Our only complaint was that the pillows are too soft!

We had a great stay. Just 1 night on a road trip. We did not need access to the OSU campus but the location was good. Parking was OK. The room was clean and comfortable. Access to the bar/restaurant at the attached Marriott was a perk. The breakfast was great.

From check-in to check-out husband and I had a great overnight stay. We got in about 10pm but were checked in quickly and courteously. The room was clean, spacious and had a nice comfortable bed. The hotel was quiet the entire night and we slept soundly until 9am. We had a 12pm check-out so made some coffee and lounged until it was time to head out. We would 100% stay here again- and I think we’ve only said that about a few other places over the course of our lifetimes!
