Handicap accessible
I stayed here for a concert that was across the street. I was supposed to have a handicap accessible room for I have really bad trouble with my knees. The shower was supposed to be a roll in but it wasn’t. I had trouble stepping in. I know the hotel was absolutely packed but I was just thrown on the 7th floor. Everything else was perfect.

The hotel was dated but very clean and the staff was welcoming, the only issue for me was the uncomfortable bed. I realize every bed and back won't be a perfect fit but this went beyond that. Half of the mattress was so worn that when laying in the middle, my body was actually on an incline. I tried making the best of it but there was no way of making it work. It took a few hours each morning before I was able to work out the kinks enough to enjoy our sightseeing. While away on vacation, you want to wake up feeling refreshed and a restful sleep is the biggest part of it. Sadly, that's not what this hotel provided.

Took a really long time to get someone to come to the front desk. Guest services only had one person working and she was somewhere else in the building at the time. The parking across the street was fine but if you cross in the middle instead of walking the opposite way to the corner to cross there is no side walk and you are in a turn median waiting for cross traffic. If you had children with you plus bags it would be super inconvenient. The ceiling lights did not work in our room so we had to fumble around to find a light. All in all our check in experience was not great but the bed was comfy, room was quiet and the shower was good.

Very convenient location especially if attending events at Nationwide Arena. The room itself was just average and lacked what I consider minimum essentials such as soaps and wash cloths. Parking is off site as well.

We didnt have any issues with cleanliness, but we had multiple issues with the front desk, there was 3 of us staying in the room, and i arrived with one, and the other arrived soon after and I spoke to the front desk about this and they said they would give her a key card after seeing her ID and that it wouldn’t be an issue, the person never put it in the system and didn’t tell anyone when she left so I then had to come back and show my ID to check in my friend, after this the gentleman working the front desk named Baul said he needed to make us all new key cards since we were adding one; we had this done and I took one and so did my friend, the third one staying with us was out at dinner, and Baul said he would hold her key card for her and we left her name and we were told there would be no issues, when my friend returned at night I was asleep and so was my other friend, she went to the front desk and said she needed her key card and that they had her info, the same gentleman that we made sure had the key card told her he didn’t know what she was talking about and wouldn’t give her the card, luckily I heard my phone vibrating and woke up,and let her in the room, we were super angry and this point because this is now the second issue we had with him, the next morning my friend went and spoke with the front desk and said we needed her card, they said they had no idea what we were talking about and made ANOTHER set of key cards for us, unable to type anything else due tospace

Room wasn’t super clean but it was affordable. Couldn’t get towels due to the hotel being sold out and guests hoarding them. For note: you could see spilt stuff on the walls and tables, it just needed a good wipe down furniture wise.
