Everything was great except for the beds and pillows. The beds were not comfortable and the pillows went flat super quick. For the price I would expect better.

The property is great. But. for the price per night, I have to ask why certain "little items" are no longer provided. Littke things like body lotion, shower caps, bar soap for those who cannot use the nody cleansing gel. The auto ice maker didn't work, so trips to the ice macine were in order. The room was not refreshed, had to ask for clean towels. The care of the customer does not measure up to the time before Covid.

Great location, felt like we were 20 minutes away from everything we wanted to do in Columbus. Parking is a challenge, the lot is shared and there aren't enough entrances to the Residence Inn areas.
