Note: I review hotels on a star-level basis. Read review to get the full idea of the experience. We stayed three nights from January 26th to 29th 2012. We were there for business at a conference held at the Nationwide Arena. The Red Roof Inn Columbus Downtown – Convention Center offered a solid 3 star experience at a fairly small... More

I've stayed here several times while chaperoning a group of high school students for competitions at the convention center. Staff is very accommodating and helpful. They always make sure our rooms are on the same floor, and they are helpful in getting us checked in as early as possible. The rates are good too, especially considering you get a fridge... More

Excellent location for downtown business. Efficient friendly staff; clean well appointed rooms particularly for a 2 star rated property. The beds are marginally comfortable and bedding somewhat second rate. Get over the charge for parking. It's a downtown property. I did note broken auto glass in the lot which made me question the security. Would I stay here again? For... More

Hotel was clean and staff was very friendly. We stayed in non-smoking king room. Room was nice, comfortable, and decorated well. Bathroom was very clean. I thought the bed was comfortable but husband didn't. Internet connection was not that great. We were on the seventh floor though and were staying there for a convention. Continental breakfast was standard (danishes, muffins,... More

I'm currently staying at the Red Roof Inn Columbus, Downtown. I went in with low expectations because of the reviews on this website. I must say I was pleasantly surprised by the exterior and interior of the hotel. It is modern and trendy and I was expecting the usual drab and tasteless Red Roof Inn look. The service at the...

This is the best Red Roof Inn I ever stayed at. The rooms were recently updated to a trendy, modern decor. Some of the rooms have a nice view of downtown. The location across the street from the convention center is nice. The Arena District is within walking distance (theoretically). The Short North is a 5 min. drive. On the... More

Considering I had to book a room at the last-minute, for only one night, and try to find one that was relatively inexpensive and close to the NationWide Arena, I thought I really lucked out. The room was quite spacious, appeared clean and modern-looking. The modern bathroom sink was a nice touch but the maids need to make sure they... More
