Stayed here a few times and it’s been great each time. The place is bigger than it looks. The Tavern is great for drinks. The food is also good. It’s convenient to have a bar and restaurant in the hotel. Wish they had a free breakfast, but not a show stopper with how close they are to the OHIO campus.

Checked in and went to room. Industrial fan was blowing on carpet due the excessive water leaking from ceiling. Asked for new room and was told that not only were they sold out but by 10 pm we were the very last people to check in and would not move us. Still waiting over 45 minutes later for maintenance.

Visiting our son in Ohio

Our check in was wonderful, the young man found us a room that gave my handicapped husband the easiest and most direct access to our room from the parking lot. The room meet all his needs except for there was no shower seat for him in the shower.

Only issue was with a staff member vacuuming the hallway floor at 10:00 at night. This went on for fifteen minutes. Disappointing.

The OU in is my favorite hotel!!! Their updates are so nice the rooms are always clean the staff is always helpful and friendly! The outdoor spaces are gorgeous and so fun to relax in! They’ve even thought of all the little touches like a water bottle filler in the lobby! We’ll be back again next year!

Love it

The hotel and the grounds are beautiful. We arrived late to check in due to our flights being delayed and were great at 12:30 am as if it were 12:30 pm. The room was really large and updated and the outside ground area was a great way to cool off a bit in the evening. The pub and restaurant were both delicious and so not pass up the beignets.
