Howard Johnson by Wyndham Columbus State Fairgrounds I-71

There was no heat in my room I asked for my money back they said they didn't have the power to do it there were cobwebs in the corner of the room one stand was broken they had an iron in the room with no ironing board and no towels

The room my son and I stayed in seemed clean when it came to the bathroom and the bed to sleep in. However, it was horribly unkept. Our shower/tub was cracked, toilet paper was stuffed down the sink so it clogged up, there was a huge hole in the wall and I could stare into the inside of the wall, it was extremely dusty and hangers weren’t put away. I will never stay here again. This place need remodeling badly!!!

REMOVE this hotel from your list of options asap. I’ve stayed at lots of hotels from coast to coast, 1-4 stars and this is easily the worst experience ever! Run down! Trash throughout the parking lot upon arrival including old tires, diapers, shopping carts and menstrual pads. The attendant didn’t seem to care for leaving the back office to check people in. Once he did get us checked in, he couldn’t be bothered to tell us where the room was located. Finally get keys and head to the rooms through a set of heavy metal double doors and the stench of weed and alcohol smacks you in the face. 0/10 if it was possible for that rating.

Old hotel

Staffs are definitely great and well mannered. Delicious breakfast varieties, nice cozy beds and it was a great stay!

The property was falling apart. Dirt dripping down the walls, stains and holes everywhere, the pool was "drained and closed for the season" but that was never disclosed in their advertising on their website or the booking site, and they didn't even notify us when we were checking in, the "free continental breakfast" was a complete joke. Nothing available but an expired cartoon of milk, a couple packages of old muffins, no batter for the waffle makers, no other drinks, just nothing available, breakfast was stated to be available from 7 am to 9 am and there was nothing available at all during that time, they required a security deposit on top of the actual payment that was not listed on the booking site, their website, or my reciept... So I don't think I'll even get that back like I should. I SHOULD be getting a FULL REFUND. Only gave 2 thin pillows for a king bed and thin sheets, the heater in the room looked like it would or has caught fire, no exhaust in the bathroom, so there was mold growing in the bathroom too ... this place was ridiculous and should be SHUT DOWN!!! On the other side of the fence behind where we had to park was a camp of unhoused individuals. Do not stay here.

No issues, property is dated and so are the rooms, had a minor hole in the wall in my room, but overall for a quick stay you can’t really beat this place for the price. Convenient location, friendly staff, the room was clean enough for me. No real issues, I’ve stayed before and will stay again.

Property was super filthy

I travel often, and this hotel stood out! The rooms were clean, spacious, and well-equipped with all necessities. The staff was extremely courteous and ensured my stay was hassle-free. Definitely one of the best hotels I’ve stayed at!

It was nasty! There was crackheads everywhere having bonfires! They were going drugs by the doors, yelling in the halls. Trash was everywhere. The room was full of trash and there were live roaches, the ac didn’t work, there was a weird smell and dirty bedding. The toilet was dirty and gross. I didn’t feel safe at all and it looks like they have cameras hidden. I wouldn’t recommend this place!
