The house was great and is close to Ohio State. I was traveling for work and it met the needs for myself and my coworkers. The location that was displayed in the VRBO app was not accurate, as it said it was close to Short North and the linked map also indicated that it was very close to Short North. I was staying here to be close to the convention center and this house is not within a few minutes walk to the convention center as I was led to believe. I informed them to update the description so others would not be mistaken as to the actual location of the house. Other than that, everything else was accurately described and it was a pleasant stay.
