My husband and I stayed here during Ohio State University's graduation weekend. We had read all the reviews and generally like older historic buildings. The lobby is spectacular. The rooms can be surprising. We booked a king deluxe and were offered an upgrade to a two room suite for $15. The bed, of course, was "heavenly" but the rooms left something to be desired. Very noisy AC units. Fortunately we were able to turn the one in the bedroom off at night and just let the cool air come through the outer room. Someone designed the room so that the closet door opens into the side of the desk. Not ideal. The sofa in the outer room has high arms and the table lamp was quite low so it was impossible to read. Our view overlooked the air handlers in the middle of four brick walls. We were told that there were very few rooms with any views. The tub and shower combo had an incredibly slow drain. We unscrewed the plug the first night thinking that housekeeping would get the message and ask maintenance to fix it. No such luck. Most of the staff was really nice and wanted to help when they could. If you book, make sure to ask what specifically you are getting in terms of size.
