My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms were spacious and perfect for a dance competition weekend, but they had a musty smell and the tap water was undrinkable. The service was exceptional, especially Clifford who made us feel like family, although one staff member refused to refund me past the cancellation period. The location was wonderful, with easy access to fun bars and restaurants. The dining experience was somewhat disappointing, with not so fresh food. Overall, a decent stay with a few drawbacks.

The hotel was cozy and clean, providing extra room for the kids to hang out, but the hot rooms made sleeping difficult. The service was extremely friendly, efficient, and accommodating. The location was good overall but was noisy due to street maintenance and a nightclub right in front of the hotel, affecting sleep quality. The dining experience was disappointing with cheap sugary options and not much variety. The hotel was dated but right across the street from the convention center, offering convenience for guests.

The hotel's location is fantastic, situated between the convention center and the North Market, offering great convenience. The rooms, while a bit small and musty, provide a decent stay. The service was outstanding, with helpful and friendly staff. However, the dining options were not up to par with other Hampton-owned properties, leaving room for improvement.

The hotel is directly connected to the convention center, making it convenient for events and gatherings. The rooms are extremely small and lack space for personal belongings like shoes and clothes. While the fan cannot be used for white noise along with the heater, the location is ideal for accessing restaurants and bars within walking distance. The dining experience can be inconsistent with limited food options, but the service staff, like Clifford, are notably friendly and accommodating.

The hotel was designed for a business traveler, but if I was visiting with my wife, I 'm sure we would have enjoyed our stay. The self-serve rooms had several options to choose from like an ironing board and iron, which were good. The location is absolutely perfect and within walking distance of so many things to do, including the North Market, the hockey stadium, and numerous shops and restaurants. However, there was an occasional drug deal involving OSU students and the price point worked well for a travel budget that looks for an upscale venue under $200 a night in most locations.

My stay at this hotel was a mix of highs and lows. The rooms are comfortable, with one that was actually ready and extremely large, perfect for a dance competition weekend. However, some rooms are small. The service was very friendly, and the location is convenient, right across the street from the Convention center. The dining experience was decent, although it could have been prepared a little better. The facilities were satisfactory overall.
