Just like home

My new home away from home when I travel to Columbus. Room is always spotless with everything I need for a quick trip. The hosts are very accommodating and helpful when needed. I love the peace and quiet of the area and close access to the highway for getting around the city easily

Great place for a quick overnight visit

This guest house is eclectic and unique! Beautiful old home renovated for guests. Our room was well equipped & nice and clean. The bathroom was small, but we didn't mind that at all. I read another review about street noise, but we were on the street side, and really didn't notice much if any noise. Kathy is lovely and very welcoming..all in all, a great experience. Thank you!

We chose this place because first of all we’ve stayed previously. It was perfect for a group gathering at a winery close by. The parlor offered us a place to hang out and visit together and felt like we were at home.
