Theresa, Lafayette, visiting Speaker Jo Ann Davidson Theatre Wed, 18 July 2018

Hotel is easy to find and conveniently located short driving distances from downtown or Ohio St. Univ. The staff was very friendly and management were visible and working to make the stay comfortable. I'd stay there again!

Liked: Many things. Very easy to get to off of I-71, and then quick access to downtown or OSU campus but without paying those kinds of rates.
Disliked: Pillows are typical hotel pillows: too thick for my liking, but I slept well anyway.
