This a lovely gem of a place to stay in the German Village area of Columbus. The place is clean, the beds are very comfy, the breakfast is good, and the staff is delightful. After a sub-par home rental experience, this place felt like complete luxury.

The front desk staff were incredibly kind and welcoming. They made checking in and out very easy. The beds were clean and comfortable, we didn’t make use of the amenities but they looked great and folks were using the pool. In the morning, the continental breakfast had great options and was a nice perk. The location was convenient and had a lot of bars and restaurants in walking distance. I would definitely stay again!
