Best option, but not great by any means
The room quality was ok, and the bathroom set up was not great. When you used the toilet the door was right there so you felt crammed in. Our room smelled terrible, but I didn’t feel like asking to change late at night. Bed had a large dip and hurt my husbands back.

I hear no hall noise or doors slamming or street noise. AC worked well . Clean crisp sheets. Room clean. I was told when specifically called if pool was open. They said yes. When I got there, they said it was closed. Disappointing.
But I’ve been there many times-always nice.

the restaurant was outstanding. our room had urine and hair on the edge of the tub. when we settled in for the night, the smell of urine made me want to vomit. small children in next room screaming and we could hear it perfectly. we left at 8:15 and drove 3 1/2 hours home instead of staying.

Only decent hotel in area
The people working are very friendly. The hotel was under construction so I'm sure they were working to make improvements. This was the only hotel within a 30 mile radius that had a working swimming pool and the pool area was pretty run down and we were all terribly itchy after swimming. Hot tub was out of service. Outlets did not work in the pool deck. Room was clean but very small with two doubles. Bathroom is just a toilet and tub/shower and VERY small. NO breakfast. It's a shame that they had to jack up the price because it's the only hotel close to the University because the price just was not worth the condition. But all other hotels in the area are considered gross and we were recommended to stay away from those.

I always stay jere when I visit my family in Ohio. This time there was a lot of construction that limited parking. Also the elevator was broken the day we left and had to carry everything down 4 flights of stairs.
