We stayed at Fairfield Inn for two nights when atttending an Ohio State game. We were thrilled when we entered the lobby and it was decked out in Ohio State decor. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Liz, one of the shuttle drivers, was an absolute treasure--funny and informative. Our room was clean, but could have used a couple more wash cloths. I highly recommend and we will stay again in the future.
