On the way south to Florida, we chose the Comfort Inn North/Polaris just north of Columbus. It was easy to find just off I-71 and very convenient to several restaurants. Check-in and check-out were both easy and very pleasant. We asked for a restaurant suggestion since there were many within walking distance or a very short drive and we were told that we could get a 10% discount or free appetizer by showing our room key at Texas Roadhouse right next to the hotel.
Our room was quite large (king bed) and perfectly clean. The hotel is not new, but has been well maintained and perhaps re-furbished in the not too distant past.The only blemish was a small scratch on one of the floor tiles in the bathroom and a tiny trace of mold in the grout just beside the tub. So, nothing luxurious, but certainly clean and adequately appointed. The bed was comfy for both of us. We did hear some noise from above(heavy footsteps or someone jumping), but nothing after about 9:30.
Breakfast (included) was among the better ones we've had in moderately priced hotels. Lots of choices of the usual (cereal, different bagels, breads, English muffins, waffle mix, juices, yogurt, oranges,etc) and in addition were scrambled eggs (real), cheese omelette, bacon(not bad) and sausage(looked too greasy to try). We were here in January and it was not very busy at all, but I was impressed that the breakfast room was fully stocked and carefully tended by a pleasant and helpful staff member.
Overall, we were very pleased and satisfied with everything about our experience, especially considering the excellent rate (CARP) of $64.
