Very friendly staff. When we first checked in and got to our room our sheets had stains on them, it almost looked like blood. I immediately went back down and requested room service. By the time we got back from dinner everything was changed and clean. Other than that we had a really good stay.

Clean property with spacious rooms. I reserved a king suite, but even for a suite, it was a large room. Very clean. Friendly staff. Breakfast was your typical offerings but still nice and well stocked. I took advantage of the Hilton app with this stay which allowed us to check in before arriving, being able to select which room we wanted and to use my phone as a room key. The location was just a quick drive to OSU campus and activities.
