10/10 Excellent

"Very nice place to stay my only real big complaint is valet only so have to pay extra"

Courtyard by Marriott Columbus Downtown

8/10 Good

"The hotel was clean, location was great as we were attending a CBJ game. The surrounding area of the pool was painted concrete and was extremely slippery causing our young children to fall multiple times to the point that after about 15 minutes we left before someone was seriously hurt. Upon checkout we requested our car from valet for a specific time and discovered a staff member had parked their car in front of ours in the valet lot after waiting about 20 minutes we were on our way."

Residence Inn by Marriott Columbus Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Love the historic parts of this repurposed building. Our stay was pleasant and the staff were all very friendly and accommodating. Will definitely come back."
