"It was fairly clean even though they were doing renovations at the end of our hallway. Only downside is the elevator and ice machine was far from our room. We had a nice balcony in the courtyard but it only had one chair and no table unlike the other rooms. But Russell at the front desk was super helpful and had great customer service. Unfortunately, we didn’t know of any breakfast options by the hotel in the mornings."

Spacious 5-bed farmhouse w/Pool Table, Table Tennis Close to Columbus Zoo

10/10 Excellent

"We absolutely loved this house and the quiet location. Plus it was Extra clean. Everyone had a room to sleep in, the kitchen and dining room had plenty of space for breakfasts, a great coffee pot, fridge, stove and new dishwasher. Plenty of glasses and mugs. The game room in the basement was used every evening with a Pool table, ping pong, corn hole, dart board and games. The kids loved the yard too. We sat in the swing and enjoyed a beautiful sunset and looking at your cows and goats. Everyone wants to meet there again next year! The location was great for us .. it was a first time to Ohio for our grandkids, so we went to Anthony Thomas Chocolates to get Buckeyes and bought desserts and donuts from Der Dutchman! We did Legoland about 25 min away before we checked in and then the Columbus Zoo was 15 min away the next day. Saturday we drove an hour and 45 min to do Safaris at The Wilds. We were blessed with perfect weather. Thank you so much for sharing your home"
