Hotels in Columbusa practical 3-star all-suite hotel near Ohio State
7.8/10
A comfortable OSU base, but repeated parking-lot break-in reports warrant caution.
This 3-star all-suite hotel is a good fit for Ohio State visits and medical appointments, with more room to spread out than a standard hotel room. Booking.com and Expedia guests consistently praise cleanliness, helpful staff and comfortable accommodations; recent Tripadvisor reviews also single out welcoming employees. Microwaves, mini-fridges and included hot breakfast make it a practical choice for families and longer visits. Marriott lists a complimentary shuttle specifically for OSU and its medical facilities.
The biggest reservation is parking security: Tripadvisor guests reported vehicle break-ins in October 2025 and September 2026, with management acknowledging incidents and describing security or police coordination. That deserves more weight than the otherwise strong guest ratings. Parking also carries a daily charge, contrary to some older listings. The indoor pool is small, and housekeeping is every other day. We'd look elsewhere if leaving a car overnight would make the stay stressful.
