Would be nice to include something...
Clean place, but EVERYTHING is some sort of charge.. No parking on site $35 valet or Self Paid parking garage. No Breakfast included.. and at the price of the stay, other hotels offer more for less.

The hotel was beautiful and the staff was very friendly. It was in heart of the Ohio State campus and downtown. Can’t wait to stay again when it’s a little warmer.

Everything was great except the beds were way too high. Other than that it was great.
