The area is safe, so any reservations about being a motel vs. a hotel (exterior room entry) were put at ease pretty quickly. Stayed for a weekend. The room, although a bit small, was very clean and comfortable, with both a fridge and a microwave. Also notable is the bonus of a big TV, after expecting a smaller one. They offer a free breakfast sandwich and drip coffee each morning of your stay (per person on the reservation). The only issue we had was on the morning of checkout, the shower had no hot water, which was odd, as it was fine the previous morning/day. OSU is right down the street, and downtown Columbus is just a short drive away. Would definitely stay here again.
