The check in staff asked for my credit card and then told me it didn't match the booking (because I booked through a 3rd party so it showed up as a virtual card). I showed him my card and assured him that it was the card used to book the room online. He wrote the numbers down on a sheet of paper (huge risk for fraud/scamming).

There was no elevator. The pool had no towels. When I asked the front desk for towels I received an attitude and he said they were low on towels......okay, this is not my problem and towels need to be provided. He handed me one towel. Just one.

The stairway smells musty, there was something goopy on the handrail. The flooring upstairs was awful. The plank flooring was warped and lifting in numerous places. Once in the room, we heard and felt kids running up and down the hallway playing. I waited a few minutes then had to open the door and ask them to stop because it shook the whole floor not to mention how loud they were yelling.

Breakfast the next morning was the only good thing. The waffle mix was empty but more was brought out after I asked.

Drive a little further and stay somewhere better. This one is rundown and sketchy.

The property was in poor repair. The room shook every time someone went in or out of the entrance door near my room. Garbage was all over the ground in front of the entrance door I had to go into (overflowing garbage can). People smoking pot in the entry way, the smell seeped into my room. I asked for a different room and had to pay more money.

The room was very clean, and the breakfast was excellent. The staff was extremely friendly and welcoming, which made for a positive experience overall.

That said, this is an older hotel that could really benefit from renovations. It does seem like they are making some efforts, particularly with the flooring, which is appreciated.

The pool itself was in good condition, but the hot tub appeared quite dirty. It may have been rust stains from the pipes above, but regardless, it didn’t give a clean impression. The entire pool area is in need of a full renovation.

The fitness room looked nice at first glance, but unfortunately the treadmill was not functioning properly. It would turn on, but once a speed was selected, it could not be adjusted. This is a safety concern and should be repaired or replaced as soon as possible.

With that said for an overnight stay it was very worth the price.

While they have recently renewed flooring in halls and rooms, overall general condition is average. Beds comfortable and everything worked as expected.

Being a college town with several other hotels in the area, they are average, compared to Hampton and Holiday Inn for example. In town for Ohio basketball game and while they all inflate rates when they can, the price while reasonable compared to others, still not justified. Breakfast ended at 9:30 on a weekend, prefer 10 or 10:30, especially after a late night game. It’s a room, OK, but more expensive that it should be.

Check in and parking were both easy. My husband is in a wheelchair because he just had surgery and the hotel was not very wheelchair accessible. We struggled to get into the lobby to check in and we were put in a room where our parking lot entrance had no ramp to get him in and out. I had to pick up the wheelchair onto the sidewalk, which wasn’t ideal. Other than that we had a good stay. The room was clean and comfortable, working ac and heat. There is a gym and a washer and dryer on site as well as an indoor pool (we didn’t utilize any of these)

Not very quiet-all composite floors lot of noise bouncing off the walls. If your room is near the doors- they are self closing and slam shut, you can feel the vibration from it. I believe you can hear the doors close from one end of the hallway to the other. If you have a spa tub a 15 minute timer is annoying, pretty much ruins having it. No bathroom exhaust fan. Room was clean and spacious. Breakfast is OK, they do have 24 hr. coffee and juice (orange/apple).

I didn't watch much TV but it was available. I had a huge bed, very comfortable. In fact the room was comfortably big. In the fitness center, I used the precor treadmill. I didn't have time to try the other equipment. I didn't go to their hot breakfast but it smelled good. There's coffee in the room next to the front desk all the time. I saw that there was a washer and dryer, and vending machines. The hotel has an unusual architecture. The price was quite low so I was surprised by the quality.

It was clean, safe and close to Ohio University. Beds were comfortable, and the pool and hot tub looked nice, though we did not use it. We were on the 2nd floor with no elevator and had my 84 year old mother with me. Breakfast area was too small and the offerings were limited. There were quite a few repairs needed, floors in the hallway, screen on our window, fan in our bathroom, etc. Although it is cheaper than many other hotels in the area, it still seems overpriced given the state of disrepair.
