I wrote a review in Mar 2012, and I am still here for business travel. Many things have changed -- for the better, and things were good before! Exterior painted and new signage, upgrades on laundry facilities and more. So, the hotel is doing well. What I did not mention was location, location, location: very convenient for Magic Mountain, auto... More

Found this hotel with Hotwire. Wasn't sure about the booking after notified that was the hotel I booked. Had a girls weekend planned. We were pleasantly surprised with our stay. While not the Sheraton, or not have as many anemities of other hotels, it was definetly a nice, reasonable place to stay. We would stay again.

This was my first time to stay at Extended Stay America and I loved it. Room ambience was superb, kitchen and fridge plus cooking pans in the room, couch/bed for a third person. Location was near everything I needed:highway for quick exit and entry, malls for grocery and window-shopping..my wife and daughter loved it too.

This was my second stay here. First one was not too bad as I understood it was more a long stay hotel. Hence the extended part of the Hotels name. However on this stay things were terrible. First the room had these small bugs in the bathroom. I was only staying one night so never called down to reception. Second... More

This hotel is close to the freeway, restaurants, and mall. Took me 15 minutes to get to downtown Columbus for a conference. The staff were friendly and the place was clean. I loved having a small kitchen and a fridge to store my food and drinks. I would stay here again.

Booked only a day ahead on Hotwire and got a very good price. The room was not all that big, but it did have a small kitchen complete with stove/oven/microwave. I'd say it's approx 15 years old. The area is just loaded with all kinds of local restaurants and of course, the usual franchises. The staff was friendly and worked... More

Lucked into this on a blind booking on Hotwire. Only $50. Vs $250. Really!! Here three nights for conference and working out fine. Miss daily housekeeping but that's trivial. Room and property in general bright and clean. Great location right off interstate with plenty of fast food and sit down restaurants. Two minute drive to Hilton for conference sessions. Room... More

We stayed at this Extended Stay after checking out early from the Best Western Plus about 15 minutes south. I wish we had stayed here from the beginning! The hotel was VERY clean, and the front desk attendant was extremely nice. The room we stayed in was great. It had a full kitchen and a DVD player. It was quiet... More
