“Nice Place To Stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed May 21, 2013 NEW

There are many choices in the Convention Center and Arena District of downtown Columbus but we chose the RedRoof Inn because of it's reasonable price and location. We were pleasantly surprised to find that the room was in excellent condition, cozy and clean. The staff was very hospitable and shortly after checking in we received a courtesy call making sure...

“A small let down for such a high price hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed April 12, 2013

A decent hotel in a decent area. First, the issues: * The parking is across Nationwide Boulevard which can be busy at times. There is no shuttle or even a crosswalk, so you have to cross a divided highway (sometimes during the night) to get to the hotel (there isn't even a sidewalk so good luck if its raining, you... More

In town for a conference at the Convention Center and chose to stay here vs the much pricier options in the vicinity...I was a little hesitant, but can't complain about anything. The price is half that of other options for the room and for the parking. Parking is less convenient (outdoor lot across the street; no valet) than other options... More

“Good value.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed March 21, 2013

Staff were all friendly and helpful. The room was large, clean, comfortable and quiet. Good location. Many nice restaurants in walking distance. Fresh coffee was always available. Wifi signal was weak. Shuttle service was limited. There were plenty of towels, soap and shampoo. I will use this hotel again and I would recommend it to my friends.

The Red Roof Inn Downtown Columbus has very friendly staff and a nice atmosphere. We were greeted by wonderful frontdesk staff, especially Haley. She was efficient and knowledgeable.
