This place is very "hip". Loved the decor and vibe. Room/bed was very comfortable. Front desk staff was friendly. Breakfast was not free -- had to be purchased. Decent prices/selection for breakfast -- included made-to-order stuff and "grab and go" options.

Jamie, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We stayed her for an OSU football game. It is about a half hour walk to the stadium. The staff was wonderful. The room was spartan and a bit beat up but clean. I know the ridiculous price was based on location and not amenities. It has a parking lot and they allowed me to park 2 cars which was great on a game day. The on site bar was hopping and had a great vibe.
