This hotel was easily accessible from the expressway and close to everything we needed Our room was fairly clean apart from a few spots on the carpet here and there The garbage cans had no liners in them and housekeeping only cleans on request

We were told to leave garbage outside of our door during the day and someone would pick it up The room is decent sized and has a separate living area from the bedroom which I loved Pool and workout room were nice and breakfast was tasty and hot, just a little crowded My only real complaint would be check in I checked in late like 1030 11 pm Guests were crowding the check in desks just hanging out and talking I stood around for 15 or so minutes before an employee acknowledged me for check in Also, elevators There are 2 sets of 2 elevators but every day we were there only 1 of the 2 elevators was working on both sets

Patti Morgan

We were lucky to get a room on short notice on a Saturday afternoon The room was large and clean, and the fold out couch was perfect for the kidsThe trash cans in the room did not have liners, and the tub was slow at draining

There was plenty of soap available, and the hair products were much appreciatedThe breakfast spread was amazing Lots of cereal, fruit, and fresh cooked foodAll elevators were functioning, halls were clean, everything well in order in the lobby and lounge

Tom Flanigan

I stay at a lot of Hilton hotels Our stay was good but not great I’ve noticed Embassy Suites hotels are ran similarly

Overall, the stay was decent The room was a good size room for my family and the hotel was nice enough for our quick trip over memorial day weekend But we were missing a few things in the room we had to call and let the front desk know Missing tv remote and they had a fake phone in the bedroom The pool wasn’t heated and the staff weren’t that friendly Front desk personnel were nice At breakfast, the staff begins breaking down breakfast before 10am and actually shut the doors on people still getting food and coffee The bar staff at dinner weren’t outgoing and friendly but did their jobs Food was good but would like to be able to get coffee after 10am

I booked this particular room for the fireplace Upon check-in, was informed they are all out of service I asked for some type of credit or upgrade for my inconvenience

The Manager upgraded me to a one bedroom suite After surveying the room, I discovered their was garbage under the sink, dishes were still in the dishwasher and all the pots and pans were gone I brought groceries to cook I called down to inform the Manager He said he would send a skillet and a pot up Also was advised the garage would be picked up at that time 30 minutes later, I called again I was informed the housekeeper was searching all the available rooms for a pot and to wait a few more minutes Housekeeping arrived with one pot That was all he could find The quality of the sofa is very poor It feels like sitting on concrete This experience has tarnished my image of Marriott

Genade

The room was beautiful and the property is well maintained That’s why the writing all around our front door was very odd Also, the door to one of the bedrooms was completely off the hinges and could not be shut

Did not have housekeeping for the 4 days we were there Asked for additional towels at the front desk and was told they would bring them up and we never received them

Krista Mills

Travel nurses beware! The location is perfect That is the only plus Washing machines not working

Housekeeping is poor Front desk staff, with the exception of one woman, is a joke (poor customer service, sarcastic responses to issues) I’ve had mail sent to me at the hotel and, even after speaking with front desk and letting them know I was expecting mail, it was returned with the delivery driver because no one by my name was staying there At that time I had been there 4 weeks After several complaints regarding housekeeping, the manager came by our room I was sleeping (I work nights) so I didn’t get to the door in time so they let themselves in and yelled through the bedroom door for me to come out When I walked to the living area the manager and a housekeeper were inside our room The very next day, twice within 10 minutes, staff(I assume housekeeping) was beating on the door and trying to come in but I had the door latched I am relocating to another extended stay in Easton I have always enjoyed my stays at Marriott locations, but this place is terrible The one star is strictly for location

Christian Cottrell

The rooms were clean and spacious, especially considering we got a standard queen room and not a bigger suite The front desk workers were incredibly helpful The scenery, especially the gazebo and pond in the center of the hotel area, were a very nice touch as well

The only complaints are that the road leading to it is a little confusing and the “complimentary” breakfast is actually $15 per guest, which is incredibly steep given the quality of the good Don’t get me wrong, the food was fine, but they aren’t serving high end items

Melissa Craft

The outside definitely needs some work but the rooms are recently remodeled and very cleanThis is a 2 story building and very very long It’s a haul from 1 side to the other

The court yard is beautiful, but again, needs some landscapingThe pool is small, but clean The breakfast buffet was very good I would stay here again

Jen Knox

I really appreciate this place My husband and I had to come here with our pups last minute due to electrical work on the house, and it was a comfortable and lovely place to stay Everyone was kind, and though the restaurant wasn’t open the day we were there, the bar menu was pretty good

My only small critique would be to offer one vegan option on the bar menu

Kate Fredericks

I stayed here for 6 nights, and I will attest that location is wonderful However, the hotel leaves a lot to be desired The gym is missing weights, there’s no yoga mats

The room was comfortable but my room had some baseboard trim missing, the shower body soap bottle was detached from the wall and so someone had just propped it up on the shelf Only gave me one hand towel and one wash cloth The worst part was breakfast While it’s great that they were doing “made to order,” every morning there was a big line, which took forever Also, they were missing a bunch of things on the menu Menu advertised Impossible sausage, they didn’t have it, avocado toast was supposed to have sun dried tomato and arugula, and it was simply multi-grain bread with store bought guacamole slathered on and one cold hard boiled egg Bagels, no cream cheese, bagel was barely toasted and still cold in the middle The eggs were greasy I don’t understand how this hotel is approved by the Marriott brand

Theresa Porter

The hotel was nice and clean Did not try the cafe but the food smelled goodHad a king size bed that was very comfortable, had a couch that could be a sleeper

Bathroom w/shower was great! TV w/great selection of channels Also did not make it to the pool or the exercise room The hotel is in an awesome location, walking distance to shopping and restaurants!

Timothy Carter

Oh man this was a disappointing experience My normal experience with Courtyards is positive but this place failed to live up to that Let’s dive in

AC Unit:During the night, something in the AC unit produced a sound that I would describe as a monster truck with a helicopter rotary mounted on top This is my main complaint and everything else is a minor annoyanceThe Shower:The lack of water pressure was disappointing but not uncommon What confused me was the lack of body wash in one of the three mounted dispensersThe Bite:After a night of AC terror I found what I believe to be an insect bite on my stomach While I can’t confirm I got it in the hotel I wouldn’t be surprised at this pointIn closing, I had a lovely time here before going to bed but after that it was all downhill I won’t be coming back until some major reservations have been made that are more in par with the standards of Easton

Stayed here for work, first time Outstanding property, as I remember a Marriott ( Courtyard) being Very friendly staff, girl in Bistro in the morning was very nice and accomodating

Spotless room, gym is the best I’ve been too Hotel is bright, clean, smells purified as far as air quality Top notch property, can’t say enough good things about it Places to walk to for dining, safe area, as I walked to eat by myself at night

Jan Schmidt

Did not enjoy my experience at this motel No coffee or cream in lobby Cafe area was closed at 6:30 and still at 8

No coffe available for guests Service in room was little to none No coffee cups in room to even make black coffee in the roomOur room was clean Bed was wonderful; but absolutely no frills or welcoming atmosphere Not an attractive location Definitely not up to Marriott’s standards

Bill French

Most staff were friendly The programmable thermostat kept the room at 80 degrees all night and the fan ran all night sounding like a washing machine running The room was clean and the bed comfortable though

The morning breakfast was closed due to a no call no show employee They need a cross trained employee or some form of ack up plan

I spent a lot of time looking for a hotel for my family getaway and decided on this place as they had breakfast and pool with hot tub, all for a very good low price compared to everywhere else I even drove a bit out of the way from the attractions we were seeing and I’m very pleased! Staff was very professional, it was more fancy than I expected! We even got little snacks in our room as a welcome gift how sweet The breakfast was very delicious especially the waffle

Breakfast attendants we’re very professional and kind We were the only ones in the pool and we really enjoyed the hot tub, pool was heated and was very enjoyable my daughter didn’t want to leave The beds were decent and our room was very clean If we come back to Ohio definitely staying here again, thank you for such a wonderful stay! I can tell the owner really cares about this place 🙂

Brenda Weatherwax

Stayed one night while air conditioner at home not working The area seemed safe, no concerns there The room was clean and comfortable

The bed was good The room was a bit dark and the carpet dated, but overall it was good for the price range Staff very friendly We didn’t use the pool, but the wifi worked fine and the breakfast was good, standard fair for a hotel in this price range Kroger, Gas Station, Burger King across the street No elevator but only two levels It is pet friendly It is also non smoking, but there was someone, guest or staff, smoking in one of the rooms when we left as you could smell it quite strong in the hallway No odor in our actual room We would stay there again if needed

Larissa Maiden

Check in was very easy! Staff was friendly and helpful Our room was very welcoming with snacks and drinks Beautiful presentation! Hot tub in room was the perfect temperature

Bed was decently comfortable We spent a lot of time downstairs in the pool and hot tub (Only complaint is that the pool was very cold) The breakfast was great, tasty cheese omelets, sausage pattie’s, freshly made waffles with toppings, breads and bagels, juices and coffee (and more!) We had a wonderful trip thanks to the staff at Best Western Worth every penny

Angela Emmons

Beautiful hotel! Neat, clean, and spacious Staff was kind and helpful The extra fee for the breakfast buffet is absolutely worth paying! The made-to-order omelets were delicious! They also had scrambled eggs, meats, waffles/pancakes, breads/bagels/muffins, yogurt, fresh fruit, cereal, juice, milk, and coffee

If you don’t want to use valet, there are plenty of parking spaces (they also have a parking deck) Perfect location! Close to everything

Shannon Ritter

I stayed at this hotel for 12 days! It overall would’ve been decent, except for the front desk staff, well one in particular, I think her name was Brenda During one of the many evenings I stayed, there was a party in the “Presidential Suite” across the hall from me I called the front desk to have them come up to address it

I was told by this person, they would call the room I assumed this hotel would have security and they would send them up to the room After another 30 min of no change, I called again and got the same person She told me she would call again, then, also said, she knew who was in that room Almost implying it was a friend or coworker I asked if it would be better if I called the police She told e I wasn’t allowed to call the police Yes NOT ALLOWED!! She told me if I did I would be kicked out along with the people making all the noise I asked to speak to the manager and she put me on an endless hold, so I hung up Immediately after that, the noise stopped This morning, the electricity went out I got the same person when I called down to ask about it She said it was out for everyone and hung up on me No apology, nothing Horrible Horrible customer service Run don’t walk to one of the other many hotels in that area!!!

Christy Pember

We stayed here one night and chose it because it was walking distance to Easton Town Center The room was immaculate The hotel lobby was gorgeous

Front desk was helpful and also friendly! The pool was also perfect We didn’t work out in the fitness center, but I did regret not bringing my workout clothes when I saw it When we come back to Columbus, we will definitely stay here again!

So

Mixed review here The staff has been fantastic; helpful, competent and attentive The public spaces are welcoming and attractive but the furniture isn’t the most comfortable The room is a nice space and the bathroom is super nice The room, however, is entirely covered in laminate flooring Not a fan Regardless of the heat setting the floor stayed cold, it’s slippery when wet and feels pretty industrial While this otherwise is a really nice property, I don’t think I’d stay here again specifically for the flooring

Kimberly Marsh

Good staff Good common spaces Small Indoor pool for exercise

Nice fitness room with rower etc and accommodations are good Little quirky things Nautical theme is kind of weird since its landlocked area with retention pond as only water feature But weirdest thing was the door sensor to roomStopped working Got new room but staff had to break into other room to get our things We waited at least an hour so good thing we did that funeral like we had yesterday, or wedding etc Got a call late at night asking about our $120 bar bill for Raymond No Raymond here and certainly 2 drinks didn’t cost $120 Otherwise the rate is good Lots of outdoor places to sit near the pond and some games too

Rob Keisling

Fantastic location, each & every stay Very clean & well-maintained property in a very nice location Staff are very professional & courteous

Strong attention to detail in a modern facility make for an enjoyable stay Daily housekeeping is a welcome return from the covid hiatus Restaurant is well above-average for hotel in both food and service Sam was great at breakfast Bartenders are very friendly and engaging You will be glad you stay here

There’s not enough words to describe this AMAZING place! My 1st time in Ohio and I was lucky to get a room here This hotel is the cleanest I have ever stayed at! The people who work here in every department are the nicest most welcoming people! I felt so at home here it was hard to leave! The food at the restaurant was delicious and overall ambiance is gorgeous! It’s not fair to give a 5 star rating when they deserve 100 more! They don’t disappoint! I have stayed in countless hotels over my years of traveling, and this tops them all! I’ll be back here for sure Thank you to the kind staff for everything

They were welcoming for me to take photos in my cosplay there as well ❤️ I adore it here!!

Shannon Long

The food was good but horrible service After 30 minutes of watching our waitress serve other tables and ignore us In the hour and half we were in the restaurant my drink was topped off once and another waitress brought us catsup for my daughter We were never offered a desert menu or given a bill

I finally walked out and found someone at the desk When I explained to the manager he promptly brought the bill and made sure I paid before leaving

Angelo Serra

Small-town America at its’ finest Situated on the far East end of the main street through Granville, this quiet location is well situated and nicely appointed The hotel is close to a number of restaurants, small shops, and the area is very walkable

The main entrance is covered for arrivals during bad weather and the reception desk is right inside the door We were greeted warmly and found our room ready on arrival We had a corner room with a view out to the main street and towards downtownThe room was clean, had a small closet with robes, and a reasonably large bathroom The bed was very comfortable and the room was quiet at night There was a nice side chair and ottoman that was very comfortable for reading The only bummer was that the fireplace was not functionalOur two-night stay was very enjoyable and comfortable with the staff being responsive to our questions and our needs

Codi Booth

I selected this rating because the hotel was in an expensive area and I expected the hotel to be in much better shape than it was I arrived and got on the elevator only for there to be multiple chunks taken out of the floor This would be a huge risk for someone with a wheelchair or walker

I got off the elevator and you could smell that the carpet has a permanent unpleasant odor Then I get to my room and the curtain was broken going diagonal across the window and a metal piece that was supposed to be mounted to the wall was on the floor and the screws laying beside it I went to the front desk and the girl was adamant about putting me in a different room so I got put across the hall The second room I was put into also needed a work order because the bathroom sink didn’t drain It was an inconvenience to have to use the shower for my hand washing and dental hygiene The morning receptionist asked how my stay was and I told her staying at a Hampton inn in Easton Columbus I expected the hotel to be in better shape for what I payed and that my second room had a non draining sink She said ohh I will put a work order in and have a nice day I payed too much money to stay in such a run down hotel

Nic West

I really appreciated the location of this hotel, it was so close to shopping I got a room upgrade which I absolutely appreciated The room was huge! The bed was great as well

I didn’t care for the bathroom set up, with the vanity area being outside of the actual bathroom My only issue was the noise I think my neighboring room played music until the late hours and the front desk option didn’t work on the phone But all in all, I would stay here again

Meghann Shalosky

Overall, my stay was good for the price I paid The rooms are nice enough, thought they are a bit on the small side and dated There were a few pieces of cereal along the baseboards and the entertainment center that had been missed by housekeeping and the lighting wasn’t the greatest in the room, but the beds were comfortable

The bathroom was fairly clean but, again, dated Not long after check in we received a call from the front desk asking if we were satisfied with our room, so customer service seemed great Breakfast was from 6-9 On Monday the breakfast was good, but on Tuesday it was cold, hard, and not everything was in stock Monday evening I sat in the lobby and noticed leftover bits of food on one of the couches and under a decorative pillow Something was wrong with the elevator buttons, so on any of the upper floors we had to press the going up button even if we were going down Based on another review, this has been a problem for a while now

As a frequent traveler and a member, will definitely not stay at this location on my next tripFront Desk staff was very nice and helpful at check-in in but, we get to the room and the bathroom was not well cleanedThere was no tissue papers in the room nor the bathroom

Toilet paper was almost finished and we still have not received any as I write this review even though I have asked for oneI tried calling the Front desk and no one is picking upThere is no sign for do not disturb in our roomWe specifically asked for microwave when booking and was told they would provide it, we got to the room and there was no microwave so I had ask and was told they have it only in the suite so I insisted the check the recorded call before I was provided with oneFor someone who doesn’t know much about staying in a hotel and the standard amenities that comes with it, this hotel will be paradise for them but definitely not for me and my family

Kelbi Harman

Room was dirty, pretty sure bathroom hadn’t been cleaned from previous guest Soap was missing from the box on the counter Needs updating on things that are broken or damaged

Some lights wouldn’t work, or the phone or alarm clock Food/stains on walls,carpet and around lights by bed Hot tub was completely yellow and pool was not clear and had stuff floating in it Front desk staff was nice and helpful Location was good But I wouldn’t recommend this hotel to anyone We used a recommendation from a local store to stay here and I’ve notified them of the conditions of the hotel and that maybe they should pull their recommendation from the website We didn’t even attempt to try breakfast The ratings on this are very misleading It wasn’t a good stay at all

Beth Gelhar

You’re mostly paying for the location of this hotel in my opinion The place is a bit run-down Our room was clean, but had some noticeable issues

They didn’t provide enough towels and getting extras was difficult (we had to resort to grabbing pool towels at one point) Our mini fridge had what I can only describe as a god-awful smell- to the point that it was unusable The mechanism for the window shade was broken, so we mostly just kept the shade down because getting it to move was very difficultThe staff was very friendly and hard-working, so we appreciated that And breakfast was on-par with other Holiday Inn Express locations That said, I probably wouldn’t choose to stay here again simply because it was not a good value for the money

Customer Service is lacking Just a tip: maybe try smiling at your guests? That’s kind of CS 101 We chose this hotel because we needed to stay with our cats while we showed our house and they are pet friendly

We left a night early as we scheduled showings earlier in the day on our last night and they didn’t inquire as to why we were leaving early (if we were unhappy with the room etc) Breakfast sucks, but we expected that Our room was clean enough and the bed was comfortable It was fairly quiet, as well

Ranell Prioleau

The hotel is nice however they have bed bugs I am not one to do a review but the way the hotel handled it was unacceptable I woke up to something crawling on my pillow at almost 5am, so I was able to capture it and I proceed to the bathroom with bug in my hand

Get to the bathroom kill it and a lot of blood is on the tissue I get my phone to do a Google search on what kind of big is this and it came back as a bed bug This was new to me because I have never seen one before So I call the front desk to notify them of what just happened He told me to call back around 7am when the manager gets in (He did try to find me another room but they were booked) no problem I just sat in the chair at the desk until later So I proceed to the desk later that morning when the manager arrives and I say “Good morning , I wanted to just report that there are bed bugs in room I am in” he proceeds to tell me “No they are not we check all of our mattresses and flip them over” 🤔😡 So now you are calling me a lair? At this point I was over it because I only came to be courtesy to let you know what I found at your hotel So now you want to say I am a lair that is a problem to me because I have no reason to lie I am a Diamond member and I always stay at Hilton hotels So I proceed to show him the picture of the bug and now he says oh maybe it is a one but we check all of our begs Not once did he apologize for calling me a lair So now I have red welts on my face and arm that itch like crazy So if you stay be safe and careful!

To start off the room was nice there were just stains on one of the desk and the toilet seat & bathroom door was broken We were expecting to at least sit at the pool but the chlorine was so strong (and if you don’t know that means that the water is extremely dirty) I couldn’t even stand in there for 5 minutes with out my eyes burning and my head starting to hurt But overall our stay was amazing and employees were very welcoming

I had a great stay at the Fairfield CMH Airport Each of the Fairfield staff employees I dealt were extremely helpful and friendly I needed to rent a car and the GM took me there himself, I can only assume he has staffing challenges like most in the service industry today, regardless he was happy and quick to assist

Honesty the difference is the quality of staff – most hotel properties are very similar, but the GM must be a good leader because he and his team were spot on

Very attractive exterior and interior Most importantly it is clean and doesn’t look worn-out This is a little inconvenience but the room didn’t have a USB slot so I had to locate a plug end to charge my phone and tablet

The breakfast area has this so I am there to charge my phone On a positive note, the decor is attractive and it’s pleasant to sit in the lobby area

Jessica Lopez

Great place with friendly customer service personnel Very clean rooms Comfortable beds

Close to the airport, but you need to call ahead for the shuttle or you will wait The only downfall is the current construction There are obvious safety hazards including screws protruding from the walls in lobby which easily catch clothing

This hotel was much nicer than I was expecting for the price! We arrived very late after landing at 1am I called ahead to notify them that we were still coming and they had our key all ready for us It was well lit and I felt safe there traveling with my child

There was a dog odor in the room, but when we turned on the air it dissipated quickly The beds were comfy and the room was clean and recently updated Breakfast was standard hotel hot breakfast with a pancake machine It was well stocked and the staff working it was friendly

Anthony Strong

The room was not clean A huge spider crawled out the shower when I opened the door The thing had to be quarter sized or better

I requested services as I was leaving both mornings for work and I got nothing The floor in the room was uneven By uneven I mean there was a hilltop between the bed and dresser Walls were thin, and despite calling the front desk, I had to go and politely ask my neighbors to please be quiet at 12:35 am I strongly do not recommend

Dionne Melton

Their phone only works sometimes When we, meaning me and other guests reported it to the front desk person she said she doesn’t know how to fix the phones Breakfast attendant was friendly and helpful but the breakfast items were not good

Fruit that was minutes from being spoiled, some type of strange egg patties, and mushy sausages The rooms needed some work, the desk had burn marks The hotel was so over run with kids that it sounded like galloping horses above our head Children we’re running the halls late A nice gentleman working did go and quiet then down We also didn’t get to utilize the pool or spa because they were full of small children with very few adults They also had a group holding a late night meeting in a conference room When it was over they just all stood around the lobby loudly hanging out They also helped themselves to the coffee and tea area and the attendant didn’t replenish it When I said there aren’t even any more cups or lids she said, how many do you want Lol I also complained that the walkways outside were ice covered She said that was handled by an outside company and that they had salted the previous night The beds were comfy I wish I could have left a better review

Wonderful Granville Getaway!We have stayed in a lot of B&Bs over the years, and the Welsh Hills Inn is easily one of the finest experiences we have had Beginning with Wrigley’s friendly welcome at our car, the hospitality never stopped The aura of comfort was first evident in the beautiful common areas and grounds and extended into our luxurious room

Jeff’s breakfasts were amazing, and he and Bobbi truly made us feel at home in their gorgeous inn We will definitely return whenever we want a relaxing getaway not too far from home

Aubren Davis

We had the best time here at The Welsh Hills Inn and will definitely be back Bobbie and Jeff were great to work with to accommodate everything we wanted They were so sweet and kind and always available if you ever needed anything

They also have two sweet dogs that we just adored and they both greeted us immediately This was our first Bed and Breakfast experience and it exceeded all of our expectations and more As our last weekend before we welcome a new baby we wanted to just go somewhere relax and unwind and spend time together and this place let us do just that It didn’t even feel like we were close to Columbus or even in Ohio for that matter The hills/views were amazing, how quiet and peaceful it was made it even better to just sit and relax on the porch Definitely is a paradise away from home The food was excellent, breakfast was great, our little candlelight dinner was everything and more, and we had a bonfire the last night we were there and it was so nice and relaxing The massage therapist was also great and I left relaxed From the house, our room, the food, views, and the hospitality it was a 10/10 visit and we will be back

I booked this getaway so my family and I could all relax and enjoy spending some quality time with one another Our trip definitely did not disappoint!!! We started each morning off with an amazing breakfast, that is as beautiful as it is delicious We also decided to treat ourselves to a candlelight dinner one night

We had the NY Strip, baked potato and corn on the cob Our steaks were HUGE, and cooked to perfection! We all agreed that it was the best dinner we had ever had Jeff & Bobbi serve a menu that is out of this world! It’s worth staying just for the food! We enjoyed our lazy days floating in the pool, playing games, talking, laughing, napping and sitting around a fire at night I chose to treat myself to a hot stone massage one afternoon and it too was fabulous Jeff, Bobbi and of course Wrigley & Ellie ensured that my family and I had such a wonderful time They really do go above and beyond to make sure everything is perfect with your stay They work tirelessly so you are pleased with your experience here at The Welsh Inn It’s a one of a kind, relaxing vacation Nothing else even compares
