I had to take my son to the Columbus airport on a Sunday morning for a direct flight to Dever and we live southeast of Cleveland. I toyed with the idea of driving down on Saturday afternoon and staying overnight somewhere, provided I could get a decent hotel for under $75.
I put in on priceline.com for a 3 star hotel and started at $45. Not accepted, so I upped it $1 and voile', Sheraton Suites came up. I was thrilled, a $109 per night room for $46 + tax, awesome!
It was a nice hotel, free wireless in the lobby, and bed and pillows were amazing! But, I have to say there were a few things that weren't so awesome. The toilet kept running despite jiggling the handle, we were on the freeway side of the building which made for some noise (went to a drugstore and bought some earplugs), one of the glasses at the bar was chipped and cracked, and the wallpaper in the bathroom was really tired and outdated and peeling off the wall in a couple of places. The parking lot was jammed full of people, which led me to believe the hotel was booked, but there were a few events going on in the ballrooms, which made parking impossible in the front of the hotel. Arriving at 8:00, we had to park in the back, where there are signs posted that say "Park at your own risk. Hotel not responsible for personal items or car theft." Being that it basically is right next to the highway, I can see how it would be hard to catch a thief on that side of the building. Nice, reassuring. Maybe they should hire a security guard for the back parking lot.
But for the money? This was a great place to stay. Just wish we had had time to go to the indoor pool, it looked nice.
