The room was very clean, recently remodeled, and well stocked with all necessities. The free coffee and breakfast sandwich from Crimson Coffee is an added plus. Walkable to Ohio Stadium.
Really liked this place. Clean room, pleasant staff, free coffee (and it's good). When checking in, go to the coffee shop, it also serves as the lobby.
