Axel's take: 4.9/10
Airport convenience cannot outweigh recurring cleanliness problems and renovation disruption. a basic budget hotel near Columbus airport, scored for what it is.
This basic budget hotel near Columbus airport falls short on the essentials we'd expect even from a simple overnight stop. Airport access, included breakfast and occasional praise for helpful staff are its strongest points. But Tripadvisor guests repeatedly describe stained bedding, dirty bathrooms and neglected common areas, while Expedia's cleanliness ratings reinforce the concern. We'd choose another airport hotel unless convenience outweighs comfort and consistency.
The official website calls it newly renovated, yet August and September 2026 guests reported ongoing carpeting and roof work, alongside malfunctioning air-conditioning. Completion isn't verified. A June Tripadvisor guest also reported the indoor pool closed; don't book around swimming without confirmation. Breakfast gets uneven feedback, and airport transportation arrangements need checking directly. We'd skip it for a family break or any stay where reliable cleanliness and undisturbed rest matter most.
