Howard Johnson Inn & Suites Columbus, Columbus

The hotel had its ups and downs. The location was convenient for downtown Columbus and the Red Nose Half Marathon, but the rooms need serious upgrades. The service was friendly and accommodating, making our stay pleasant. However, the dining options were limited, and the facilities were average.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, though seeming freshly updated, had a strong smell of smoke and mold, which was quite off-putting. The service was attentive but had some misses in terms of replacing towels and washcloths. The location, while still nice, needed significant improvements, and the dining options were quite limited. However, the facilities were satisfactory overall.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were filthy and reeked of smoke, prompting me to request a room change due to multiple issues. However, the service was friendly and helpful, despite encountering some unprofessional behavior. The location was not ideal, with cleanliness concerns and uncomfortable situations. The dining options were inadequate, and the facilities were subpar.

The hotel has a convenient location near downtown Columbus and an Indian restaurant but needs improvement in room cleanliness. The service staff were attentive and polite, although there were issues with promised amenities not being delivered. The dining options were limited, especially for those with dietary restrictions.

My recent stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were well-equipped with a refrigerator, microwave, and coffee pot, but unfortunately, I encountered cockroaches which was unsettling. The service was a bit inconsistent; while some staff members were very helpful and friendly, others did not honor offers or replace items as promised. The location, although nice during the day, was a bit dark and uncomfortable at night with issues like panhandlers in the parking area. The dining experience was average with room for improvement in the menu options. Overall, there were aspects that could be enhanced for a better stay.
