Great location downtown. Usually still reasonably affordable during events. Parking across the street. Building seems kinda dated but I've stayed multiple times and never found it to be unacceptable. Decent bang for your buck when downtown and everywhere else is outrageously priced during high volume events.

Hotel was handy to Nationwide Arena, however, the tv didn’t work. I reported it to front desk and she said she would ask her manager to give us a discount, however, I haven’t heard anything and she didn’t make a note. Room 705 on October 13/14, 2025.
