Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

I actually found a diamond in the rough, this place was more than I expected. I travel alot with my work and when I first stayed there I was looking for a Ramada or Hilton etc. they were sold out. I checked in with the manager ,Mike V, he surely helped open my eyes to the beautiful place he's helped create. He's quite a gentleman, courteous, caring and is always trying to make sure that you have a pleasant stay. There is a walmart, plenty of places to eat,gas stations etc. It is my home away from home! Thank you Mike V

We needed a hotel a room close to an event we were competing at. This would not be my first choice if we had options. Busy weekend in Columbus and rooms were very hard to find. First off, I have never been to a hotel that the check in process is drive through. The room was rundown and not very clean. Outside doors did not shut tight. The AC/Heater unit was very noisy and stayed on constantly. You could not regulate the temperature. It was either to hot or to cold. Not much parking.

We couldn’t be happier for a quick stay in among the pricey motels and restaurants. Desk people friendly. Room very clean with stone countertop and new sink, frig and microwave and very fast internet with free breakfast for $68. We did not need a pool.

Would not recommend this place to anyone. Had asked for a non smoking room but as son as we entered the room reeked of stale smoke. The checks was painful as had to do it through a service window. The staff member who served us was surly and quite blunt. The quilt cover had cigarette burns on it. The room was dirty. Was not convinced that the bed linen had been changed. The shower was very crappy.

I normally stay at the Holiday Express, but we were too tired and found this by chance. We were so tired after our convention from driving, we decided stay there. We got up at 6 am the next morning to take a shower in room 157-A. No water came from the shower when you turned it on. (How did housekeeping clean the shower with no water?) Called front desk and he tried and it didn't work and brought us a key to take showers in another room..What?!? Don't waste your money..If I pay for a room I have expectation that at least the shower would work.

Found myself in dire need of a hotel room on an OSU football weekend. Nearly everything in Columbus was full or beyond my budget. Booked a room at this establishment. Room was clean but well worn and as bare bones basic as they come. Bed was comfortable or maybe I was too tired to care. Unfortunately I've stayed in worse. Although I didn't have a bad experience, I might try a little harder next time.

Come here monthly for my job. Kamal is a super nice desk host and will take care of you. Many rooms are newly updated. Beds, carpet, paint, sinks and fixtures..Etc. Right of of I-270 with many restaurants close by to choose from. Also Meijer and Walmart stores very close. If you're in town for a ball game or concert this is an inexpensive but quality choice. Don't let the reviews fool you.

I stayed here for one night only. The desk clerk was pleasant. My room is clean and the furniture current enough to make me feel like the hotel was up to date. You enter each room from the outside parking area so I guess technically it's a motel. They have two separate buildings so you might get a room in the second building. There is a fantastic Chinese buffet behind the hotel better than any I have ever been to. They have lots of sushi choices in addition to the regular Chinese buffet choices. There was a microwave and a fridge in my room, a clothes rack with hangers, adequate towels and a nice looking bathroom. As mentioned in the title the toilet is one of those small round toilets that they use to fit in tight spaces. This works well for children and small adults however anyone who is larger knows the challenges associated with these tiny porcelain bowls. The shower was clean, however the hot water was quite an experience. Apparently there is no proper mixing reservoir for the cold and the hot water. The hot and cold water would come out in microbursts instead of mixing well to make the proper temperature. I got out of there quickly as it was not comfortable for me. There are several nicer restaurants close to the motel if you want quality dining. In summary I would say that the choice to stay here depends on how picky you are how or how desperate you are and what the cost would be compared to other choices in the area.
