The rooms are great! very clean, comfortable and spacious. Also, being attached to the Marriott is nice as they have a nice bar/restaurant you can use.

We had a nice stay. Merry at the front desk was delightful. The the rooms were large, clean and the breakfast excellent. I’d stay again and would recommend to others.

Nice place

No airport Transfers ( free ) Beds were very uncomfortable.. No room service to make up room while staying only fresh towels

Spacious modern kitchen, safe hot breakfast, clean, and great service.

This is a fantastic hotel. Clean, quiet, wonderful friendly staff. Excellent breakfast. I have stayed in all the hotels on this strip (except the Marriott this is attached to) and this is hands down the best! I travel with my kids each time and they agree.

Great gym, clean, and breakfast was great. Rooms are also nice

Spacious, clean, good location and friendly staff.

Beautiful newer property. the rooms are laid out well with so much attention to detail for the things travelers want and need. The bathroom was stunning. We were very happy with our stay and will stay again when we visit our daughter in Columbus.

We stayed on the Residence Inn side and the room was amazing. The room was spacious and the view was awesome. However there were a couple of items in question for cleanliness. For example, there was a small stain on the sheets, and the shower had a few spots that looked like dirt or rust. We arrived late for check in and there was no one at the desk to let me in after hours. Staff from the Marriot side called but there was no answer. I used the phone to call the front desk several times but no one answered, so I was waiting for a good 20 minutes before a guest saw me and opened the door for me. He was also looking for someone at the front desk so he could buy a bottle of water. We both waited an extra 5 to 10 minutes. I walked to an employee door that was cracked open and said hello loudly, but no one came out front. Finally an employee saw the young man waiting and must have gone to the back and grabbed someone because moments later a lady came from the door I had yelled through and took care of the guy first and then proceeded to check me in. Around 11:30am to noon, my family and I sat on the Marriott side for brunch. It was a large party but there were no other guests in the restaurant at this time. Our waitress was very rude and seemed to have an attitude like she didn't want to serve all of us. She told my aunt that she was wasting her time because she had to write down all the vegetables that she wanted in her omelet. Just unacceptable. Unfortunatley I'm out of space...

Loved how they had snack food available . Staff was very friendly
