Excellent hotel. Excellent location. Would highly recommend.

Positives: The bed was so comfy! Beautiful room.

Negatives: Noisy guests woke us up...unfortunately.


Reviewer: Not provided on Thu 26 May 2011 rated 5 out of 10.

This is a good hotel if you are the following traveler,alone,without a vehicle and scheduled to attend court. Room was tiny and only one bed for 3 travelers, parking was $20 overnight and my car was hit in parking lot and while filing report another vehicle was hit by parking attendant. So if you flew by yourself and took cab and don't want any amenities like a pool then by all means this is excellent.Also it is next to the courthouse so very convenient if attending court. Management was good I will say that they attempted to address my needs for another bed with extra bedding, however with the small room size the floor space was limited.

Positives: The bed was comfortable.

Negatives: They gave me a really small room with only one bed and had 3 travelers,furthermore parking was extra and valet wrecked my car.

Nicely renovated beautiful lobby and bar. Convenient location.

Positives: Location.

Negatives: Room was very small.


Reviewer: Not provided on Thu 27 Jan 2011 rated 9 out of 10.

Overall, I was very pleased with this hotel. It was extremely clean and neat. The staff was top notch. I only wished the room and bathroom were a little bit bigger. It felt very cramped. Also, the bathroom was extremely dark and the mirror was very far away for daily make up routine. However, knowing all this and with exception of the parking, I would most likely stay here again at the great price that Priceline gave me.

Positives: Very clean and the bed was heavenly.

Negatives: I did not like the parking at $20. And the room was very small even with a king bed. Not good for a couple.


Reviewer: Not provided on Fri 14 Jan 2011 rated 5 out of 10.

This hotel is a refurbished older hotel with small public spaces. While the renovation has been well done, the room I was in was extremely small , and the bath was tiny. Parking is in a surface lot next to the hotel.

Positives: Staff was friendly. Room and facility was clean.

Negatives: Not Westin caliber. Isolated area of city, tiny room, no covered parking.


Reviewer: Not provided on Thu 30 Dec 2010 rated 7 out of 10.

Nice hotel, location, but very small room fora king executive room! For two people and no seating area not conducive to conversation other than sitting on bed!

Positives: Location.

Negatives: Room was small with only one chair!


Reviewer: Not provided on Wed 08 Dec 2010 rated 9 out of 10.

Very nice hotel, but the parking is awful especially in the winter.

Positives: I loved the soap the hotel uses and the beds.

Negatives: Parking was awful!


Reviewer: Not provided on Tue 13 Jul 2010 rated 10 out of 10.

The hotel was great! I've swayed my friend to try Priceline as well. The rooms were comfortable just to relax in, beds were amazing, and the shower was dreamy! Appreciate the modern design. I realize this is an older hotel, so you could really tell the patchwork completed on our ceiling. We walked 10 blocks to conference center daily. Chose to park in city parking lot because the rate at the hotel was very expensive.

Positives: LOVED the beds! Definitely didn't want to get out. Shower head was amazing!

Negatives: Hallways smelled.


Reviewer: Not provided on Tue 06 Jul 2010 rated 6 out of 10.

I would not stay in this hotel again by choice. The room was like a walk in closet size. There was broken glass in the hallway. They tried to give me a room with one double bed.

Positives: Location was close to where I needed to be.

Negatives: They tried to give me a room with one double bed.


Reviewer: Not provided on Tue 08 Jun 2010 rated 8 out of 10.

The hotel was very nice, but our room was very small. There was hardly enough from for all our stuff, the shower was tiny and we had no place to hang our towels.

Positives: The bed was very comfortable

Negatives: Hotel room was very small.


Reviewer: Not provided on Fri 04 Jun 2010 rated 7 out of 10.

The hotel itself was nice enough. What was not obvious (without prior research) is that the hotel would accept your bid and put you in a room with a single double bed. Not a problem if you're by yourself but too cramped if you're with another person (hopefully a close friend). Surprisingly, the hotel didn't have cots either, forcing our group of 4 (in two rooms) to improvise. That being said, the hotel staff was very friendly and did provide us a nice conference table for playing cards (no space in the rooms) and had no issues with our drinking our wine. There was a free coffee bar just outside the restaurant (sweet!) and the obligatory local paper.

Positives: Accommodating staff.

Negatives: Single double bed rooms.


Reviewer: Not provided on Fri 04 Jun 2010 rated 9 out of 10.

Very nice hotel. Restaurant was great for breakfast although most entrees were $9 to $11.00. If you want a romantic old hotel then this is a good choice. Located near Germantown in Columbus OH. Bed and bathroom were excellent.

Positives: Quality of room, comfort of bed, nice shower, coffee and tea service in room.

Negatives: Wi-Fi cost $10.00, parking $17.00.


Reviewer: Not provided on Fri 04 Jun 2010 rated 9 out of 10.

We wanted a nice hotel, but location wasn't that important. Apparently all the nice hotels are downtown. While overall the quality of the hotel was excellent, there was an up charge for parking, the drinks at the bar were merely average and expensive, and the rooms were VERY small. I wouldn't recommend this hotel, simply based on room size. I've been in cruise cabins that were significantly larger.

Positives: Everything was tastefully decorated.

Negatives: Small rooms.


Reviewer: Not provided on Fri 28 May 2010 rated 7 out of 10.

Staff was great and friendly. Lobby was very nice and clean. The rooms are smaller than normal rooms, but wasn't bad. Bathroom had a nice shower. There was no fan in the bathroom tho. You can hear the traffic something terrible at night.

Positives: Friendly staff.

Negatives: Spot on my bed sheets, parking was $ 20 a night.


Reviewer: Not provided on Mon 17 May 2010 rated 7 out of 10.

Overall, it was nice, but they nickel and dime you. The biggest thing was the charge to make the single cup of coffee in the room.

Positives: Weight room and soap.

Negatives: Charge for the in-room coffee.

This was supposed to be a 4 star hotel, if this is true it must be on a 10 star scale, seriously.

Positives: Very quiet, few guests were staying there on the weekend.

Negatives: Valet Parking.


Reviewer: Not provided on Thu 21 May 2009 rated 9 out of 10.

Had drinks in the hotel. Really nice bar. Desk personnel were very helpful. Needed a double room. None were avaiable. Left for dinner and were notified that one became available. We already used the room we were in and they said no problem they would just have room service refresh the room and to go ahead and change rooms. They were very accomodating. Rooms were very modern.. great TV and coffee maker.

Positives: Great Bed Fun Bar

Negatives: Bathroom vanity too small

The staff was welcoming and friendly and the building clean and fresh. A problem with the toilet in room. When mentioned to front desk, the staff apologized and credited my parking charge graciously and unexpectedly. A very nice gesture. I would definitely stay again!

In addition to being rude, the front desk staff were rude. The rooms are tiny, and the toiletries were of a low grade. The parking lot - no valet available - is a block away.

The hotel was very nice; the beds were like sleeping on a cloud! And best of all for me-the A/C was phenomenal! It would be nice if it were in a different location. It is almost next door to a deserted mall. Kind of creepy.

Positives: The beds were amazing! Rooms clean.

Negatives: No vending machines-$3.50 for stale Pringles in the minibar. There are no close stores.
