Take the hot tub off the advertising lol.

It was decent. The room was nice, the kids enjoyed the pool. I was disappointed that it still advertises a hot tub. My wife really enjoyed the hot tub when we stayed in the past and it did not show that it had been removed. Otherwise it was a nice stay.

Family time

Everything was great. The only thing I would recommend is getting the pool chemicals in order. The water was a little cloudy, you could smell how strong the chemicals are as soon as you step in the building. The next day my 7 year olds eyes were swollen from all the chemicals. I did not allow him to swim before we left and the swelling went down the next day.

Columbus Stay

The hotel is very convenient to Polaris mall and major shopping. The room was clean and updated. Our family loved the pool but it was very crowded. Overall I would definitely stay here again.

Everything was pretty good only issues were that there was what looked like food on the light switch and plastic around it there was only one trash can in the entire suite and on one of the bed at three of the corners the seam of the blankets were ripped out besides that employees were pleasant and kind and the bed was very comfortable

2/10 Poor

Horrible

I will never step foot in this place again. The fire alarm went off the first night twice, very loudly in room. Was frustrating but we got over it. The next night was complete chaos, the alarm went off EVERY hour if not more. Staff at first said kids were pulling it but there was no way. A family member of mine asked the staff about it and they said "I'm tired of hearing it too and I am tired of getting calls about it." Meanwhile, we are paying to stay there, and not sleep. We were not offered any compensation except points to spend money at another holiday inn at another time. While this was at least something, I would have preferred at least some money back seeing as it was impossible to sleep. These weren't just subtle alarms either, I am talking loud and giving me anxiety the entire night. The room across from us left because their kids were crying and scared every time it went off. I felt bad for the workers as some were so nice, but it truly was a horrible experience.

2/10 Poor

Absolutely worst staff and customer service.

8:30 PM fire alarms start going off. My 3 kids were sleeping, 2 of which are toddlers. This scared the absolute sh*t out of them. The fire alarms went off a total or 3 times within about 15 minutes, with the lights flasing the entire time. I called the front desk to ask for a partial refund due to this, and they said someone pulled the alarm and it isn't their fault.. I explained about my kids and said if they couldn't help I would call corporate. The lady says "go right ahead, have a good night" and hung up the phone. I called corp who told me I would have to leave for a refund and drive 3.5 hr home with 3 kids at night. Then....11:45 at night, someone is BANGING and opens our door. The front desk person GAVE OUR ROOM KEY TO ANOTHER GUEST. And he came barging in yelling "HELLO". This again, absolutely scared my kids. We called the front desk, and the now guy tells us "the key was preprogrammed" and he wasn't aware someone was in our room!!!!! After leaving, I received a $50 charge, a $396 charge, and another $100 charge. On a $178 night stay. We are still waiting on a call back from corporate to try to get a refund for all of this. It was absolutely sickening. Another guest had no hot water for 2 night stay and also had little kids who couldn't even bathe.
