Quick access to Schottenstein for concerts. Don't wait in the line to access parking on side of the street the Schott is on, go up to the light and make a U-turn and park in the lot across the street from the Schott. Easy right turn back to hotel after the concert.

4/10 Fair

The room was clean, but all the furniture in our room and lobby was old and worn out. We saw a huge brown and black bug, maybe a water bug in the dining room so we ate breakfast elsewhere. I would not stay at this hotel again.
