The Spotlight on Motel 6 Columbus OH - OSU North

Affordable Convenience Near the Columbus Music Scene

Modern, no-frills and budget-friendly, Motel 6 Columbus OH - OSU North is a straightforward stay just under 7 miles from downtown Columbus. Located off Morse Road, it offers easy access to the city's major concert venues without the downtown price tag. This 2-star hotel delivers the essentials with clean, air-conditioned rooms, free WiFi, and free private parking—ideal for travelers focused on the event, not the extras.

Why Concert-goers love it

This Motel 6 is a smart pick for music fans who want to be close—but not too close—to the action. You're less than 15 minutes’ drive from popular venues like KEMBA Live! and the Ohio Expo Center. The hotel’s 24-hour front desk makes late-night arrivals easy, and you can roll in from the encore without worrying about check-in cutoffs. Quiet surroundings mean you’ll get a proper post-show wind-down, and free parking is a bonus for drivers.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking to split a budget room and save for merch
  • Solo travelers in town for a bucket-list show
  • Couples making a low-key music weekend of it
  • Fans seeking a quieter space to recharge post-concert
  • Budget-conscious music lovers needing just the basics

Food and Drink Options

While there’s no full restaurant on-site, the snack bar is handy for late-night cravings, and plenty of fast food and casual dining spots are within walking or short driving distance. Though there’s no breakfast service, nearby diners and cafes open early (or late) to help you refuel.

Nightlife Options

This isn’t the place for a lobby bar or live DJ, but you're within easy reach of Columbus nightlife. Head downtown or to the Short North for craft cocktail lounges, breweries, and music bars. Then retreat to your quiet room for a good night’s rest.

What People Say

Guests love the affordable rates and simple, clean rooms. Reviews often highlight the friendly staff and convenient location for events and easy interstate access. Travelers appreciate the no-fuss check-in and the ability to park right outside their room.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests mention that the décor is dated and the amenities are minimal—but that’s par for the course at a Motel 6. Think of it as a reliable crash pad, not a luxury retreat.

The Bottom Line

Motel 6 Columbus OH - OSU North is a wallet-friendly base for concert-goers who want a clean, quiet, and convenient spot to rest after the show.

I wish I slept in...

Liked: I didn't have to sleep in my car
Disliked: Let's start with the best of the worst. Probably my fault for assuming but I expected there to be a coffee maker because there has been in every room I've ever stayed in. That was pretty unimportant compared to the rest. I'm not sure if the room sat uninhabited for a while, but it was so humid that everything felt a little bit damp. The comforter felt like it had been pulled from a dryer too soon. I would think that were the case if it didn't also look unwashed, sporting a variety of stains and physical food debris from prior guests. I got to fall asleep to the sounds of a mother screaming at her child on a bed that felt like a prison cot. After what I saw on the comforter, I put my jacket on the pillow to sleep, not trusting that those were washed either. I thought it was going to be luxurious to get a king bed for a night, but my $200 Amazon mattress felt comparatively like a cloud. The bath products were all highly perfumed so I unfortunately could not shower. It was a non-smoking room, but I'm not sure if someone was just smoking in it anyway or it used to be a smoking room. It smelled horribly like cigarettes to the point it contributed to the difficulty sleeping. I checked in ten minutes before midnight and left as early as I could because I would rather go home than spend more time sleeping there.

Just OK not sure if...

Liked: It was OK
Disliked: Well, I had to wait for somebody to come to the front desk for about 20 minutes. There was a sign on the side said be right back with a cell phone number to call. Didn’t know who that was. There was no phone to call the front desk that was in the room The TV did not work finally found a guy and he came in and looked and could not get it to work. Went in there one time it did smell like a little marijuana but outside it did too went to check out and had to wait about 10 minutes for somebody to come inside gave him my room key and he said thank you. I don’t know if he gave me my $50 deposit back or not. I know it takes a few days I’ll be watching.
