Pros (+) great proximity to some good restaurants. Room was very big (double queen with the “city view.” We could see Ohio Stadium & the Big O at night —sweet! Nice size/quality TV. the little breakfast nook table and fridge were an appreciated bonus!
Cons (-) Desk receptionist first put us in a room... that hadn’t yet been cleaned! (A little alarming to walk in on someone else’s still-soiled room during a viral pandemic...) The shower water was not even really lukewarm... brrrr.
