Nice budget motel, high taxes
Checkin was quick and the Room 209 was nice but basic. No smell and the AC was running, keeping it cool. Internet was acceptable, though I got dropped a couple of times. Large counter and small bathroom with shower and tub. Every place you ever wanted to eat is within 5 minutes including a Perkins, IHOP, Wendy’s and McDonalds you can walk to. Wal Mart is nearby along with Arby’s and Cracker Barrel. Of course that also means massive traffic congestion! TV has 25 channels and the picture was very clear on the old tube type TV. The room was in good conditions, though one electrical outlet was missing the cover, so it would be dangerous to children. The AC worked great, but didn’t drain, so the room was humid, though cool. The room had a refrigerator, and they also added a microwave while I was there. I think all rooms just got upgraded with the refrigerator and microwave. The beds were thin and not that comfortable. During the weekend a group of young men were smoking and had their car radio playing loud rap music in the parking lot, but they finally left around 9pm. Room was about $65 which included an obscene 17% tax. I did not use the safe and they removed $1.50 from my bill on checkout. Overall, I was happy with my stay, and would probably stay here again, but because of the high taxes, I would strongly recommend avoiding any hotels in the Columbus area.
