Sonesta Essential Columbus

6/10 Okay

"The breakfast was just ok, not exciting at all. The bathtub could have been cleaner when I got there and I still didn’t get my $125 back yet. Also I just bought a Pepsi (that’s all they have btw) and a coffee drink and I was charged over $20 for that. "

Microtel Inn and Suites by Wyndham Columbus North

8/10 Good

"breakfast was simple but very good. Only complaint Microtel should remove the alarm clocks from the rooms they go off in the middle of the night and it's nearly impossible to figure out how to shut it off, I think the person in the next ended up smashing it. Everyone has an alarm on their cellphone"

Howard Johnson by Wyndham Columbus Fort Moore

2/10 Terrible

"I booked a Deluxe room with two beds for three people... but the sheets were very stiff, and the mattress wasn't very comfortable. There were towels for only one person, and the shampoo and soap were far too miniature—barely enough for a single person. As for the coffee maker, there was no outlet on the table to plug it into, and there were supplies to make only one cup of coffee. The refrigerator NEVER cooled down the bottles of water and juice I had purchased. Furthermore, the staff wasn't very friendly."

Microtel Inn & Suites by Wyndham Columbus/Near Fort Moore

2/10 Terrible

"The property was well ran, staff was friendly, and pets were welcomed, but I was overcharged $50!!! Not happy that the invoice doesnt match the final charge! Why was i overcharged!?? Hidden fees being stolen thinking people do not itemize their charges!? Unacceptable! "
