This property does not look like the pictures online. Those pictures may have been taken many many years ago. I was surprised with the good reviews. When we checked in,the lobby looked like a junk yard. There was no drinks, breakfast items, dining room or hair salon like the listing shows. There was no lighting outside the rooms and the stairwell had no lights and was filthy. It was dark and unsafe. The room smelled like a cleaning solution but my white socks quickly turned filthy. The bed made noises and was hard, the tub was old and gross, the towels were hard and the shower had no hot water. Someone also called our room and woke us up at 12:30 and then was outside our door yelling. I messaged expedia and they were able to cancel our second night reservation. I would never stay here again. The only interesting thing was all the pepper plants everywhere.
My socks from the floor.  I threw them in the trash.

The room was clean but we had found a used coffee bag In the coffee maker. The shower curtain reeked of mildew it also had some mold stains. When we went to check out the door was locked and the workers were no where to be found. We stood outside for a good 15 minutes before we had to call the hotel to tell them hey we wanna check out

Not sure why Hotels.com listed this property. Dirty, drugs, dangerous. Up all night with dozens of people on the balconies throwing trash over the rail. Cars coming and going until 4:00 AM. Would not stay there again for any money.

The location is great, felt safe walking around during the late night hours. The hotel itself was not kept very clean and there was a smushed dead bug on our bathroom mirror. The hot water didn’t last very long and the room itself smelled musty and old. We booked a king bed online that was available, but when we got to check in, there were no king beds available anymore so we got downgraded to 2 double beds. Overall the location was great but that was the best part about this hotel. Not sure we’ll be returning.

Highly recommended

This was my third stay here, and I’ll stay here again the next time I’m in Columbus. It’s clean, quiet, has a friendly staff and reasonable rates. And it’s right on the edge of Germantown, which is a great neighborhood to explore!

No frills - including morning breakfast or coffee, limited tv options (ignore the menu), limited lighting (desk area in shade from room lighting) - but good for the price difference From the others - would consider returning for another visit later this year...

Do not stay here

- Room smelled musty and dank. - Insufficient lighting and dark paint color made room feel dark, small, and cave-like. - Water temperature fluctuated between ice cold and scalding regardless of faucet control - potential law suit if children are burned by sudden change to scalding water. - Dust, cobwebs, hair and grime in various places, including bathtub and sheets. - Uncomfortable and noisy mattresses. - No privacy curtains (only blackout curtains), allowing other guests (and staff!) to look inside the room. - Timer switch on bathroom light broken. - Unfinished tile trim work around tissue box insert. - Misleading photos of property - pictures imply coffee provided in lobby - this is not true. - People smoking marijuana outside the room in the middle of the night, smell and fumes entered our room.
