Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Columbus

8/10 Good

"The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is because breakfast is horrible. Individual Pre packaged egg patties with kale and tomatoes, and individual very small Belgian waffles. Canadian Bacon and bagels/bread were only items not prepackaged. The breakfast attendant was very nice and sweet and I understand she is not the one making the decisions."

Courtyard by Marriott Columbus

10/10 Excellent

"Room and hotel was overly excellent and a great stay ; I enjoy my stay so much I would recommend a 10/10 to anyone that wants a vacation or just a simple nights stay . Great hospitality!!!! Room was clean ; staff was elegant; balcony was private I loved that!! Breakfast was top tier food as you can order anything freshly made ; open bar was also amazing !!"
