Stayed one night, decent room, decent breakfast. Small parking lot, small bathroom. Website says one free parking space, they told me 20$ for parking when I arrived. One star for service due to unclear policy information and extra 50$ “incidentals ” charge on credit card after check-out. Emailed owner and charge should be cleared 3-5 days. We will see.

Terrifying stay as two women travelling through Columbus. It felt like a migrant shelter with men partying in multiple rooms with doors open on our floor. Felt unsafe any time of day in the parking lot, lobby, walking to and from our rooms.
