Graduate by Hilton Columbus
Been staying here for years. It was definitely nicer and more attention to details before it became a Hilton property, but still our top choice in downtown Columbus. Great location. Rooms are small but nicely decorated.

Staff was super friendly, breakfast had a good selection of goods and really appreciated the tea and coffee available in lobby at all times and the microwave when needing to reheat late night soup! Beds were super comfy

La Quinta Inn by Wyndham Columbus Airport Area
Staff was friendly, breakfast was good but could maybe do some change ups instead of the same thing every single day. WIFI is excellent, big 55" tv in the rooms to watch tv on.
