    The room was clean but outdated, I had to wait two and half hours after check in time to get a room because there were none cleaned from the night before. Lock on door was broke, television did't work, shower was broken. definitely not worth the twenty dollars I saved by booking there and not somewhere else. I was really disappointed.

    Over priced for what it offers. No towels for pool. Vending machines were not air conditioned. Had kids who wanted candy, it was half melted. Staff wasn't friendly at all. We stayed in three hotels on this trip. This was by far the worse!

    The hotel was within walking distance to the osu football stadium and that is what we were looking for. If you want comfort and cleanliness do not stay here. The room had a funny smell (like mold). There was a shoe string on the bathroom door and paper on the ground. The price was one of the more affordable ones in the area, so i guess you get what […] you pay for. Read more

    You get what you pay for. Me and my buddy were just looking for the closest place we could get to Crew Stadium and we tried to stay on a budget. The room wasn't too bad if it's just for one night. Service was terrible. It is right next to a Bob Evans though, so that was nice. Bottom line, don't stay here unless it's only for one night, and you have […] no other choice. I will be sure to schedule far in advance for next years ROTR. Read more
