Red Roof Inn Columbus - Ohio State Fairgrounds

Star ratings are based on Klook's overview of the property's information (such as services and facilities included, etc.), and are for reference only

Bathroom was filthy; big balls of hair behind the bathroom door; only had towels/washcloths one day, was told it was my responsibility to let the cleaning staff know by 9:00 a.m. (went to Dollar Store to buy our own towels and washcloths). The smell on the 1st floor hallway was terrible; it reeked of urine. Will not stay there again!

I checked in, viewed the room, and checked out immediately. The room smelled strongly of urine, and activity outside the property made me feel uncomfortable about safety. The front desk staff was short in communication and did not leave a positive impression. Unfortunately, I did not feel comfortable staying at this hotel.

Shady area

Do yourself a favor and don't stay here! The only nice thing I can say is they refunded my stay, but that was after I reached out to Expedia to fix the problem. Ready for the story? Here's the short version... We checked in and felt pretty sketched out by the area. No biggie, we've stayed in worse areas. We get to the room and there's clearly signs that this was going to be a problem. In checking to make sure things are clean I find food and cheese crumbs under a mattress, trash under a bed, a live silverfish on a pillow, and dead bugs in the corner of the closet floor. The desk clerk offered a different room, that wasn't really any better. I found stained sheets and dead bugs in the bathroom. I told the clerk I wanted to leave and asked for a refund. He wasn't helpful at all. We left and after finding another place to stay, I contacted Expedia and they worked out a refund with the property. To be fair, I absolutely should have never booked this property. I saw the rating at 4.8 stars and thought that sounds great. I can't say that I consciously thought about the scale, but so much is out of 5 stars so I honestly didn't think much more about it. After going back and looking at things when we were deciding whether or not to leave, I realized it was 10 point scale and had I recognized that I NEVER would have booked the property at all.

Room smells like cat urine. Toilet didn't work correctly. They charged me an extra $100 at check-in after paying in advance for my room. The bed was very uncomfortable. We woke up with bites all over us so there is probably bed bugs.

Room was disgusting the bathroom disgusting and falling apart couldn’t even use the bathroom sink , the photos are not what the property really looks like , a lot of sketchy behavior outside all hours of the night definitely not safe especially for a family with little kids and we were way over charged what the normal price was also not having any luck in getting a refund for at least the second night since left early morning following after check in

The light didnt work the door lock didnt work half the time. Bed bugs.

I did not like the fact that there were plenty of people hanging around the property that were not staying there…we left when we got back to the hotel after our event for that reason.

Very dirty place

-A fight broke out in the hallway. -Dogs howled all night long. -No elevator. -Everything was dirty, or broken. -Hairs on and in the bed and pillowcases. -Asked for a working iron and the iron gave me was cracked and ripped my blouse. -The atmosphere was creepy. -They asked for a security deposit, even though I paid in full online and this wasn't disclosed online. DON'T STAY HERE!
