My stay at Columbus Urban Resort was a mixed experience. While I appreciated the cleanliness of my room and the friendly, helpful staff, I couldn't overlook the outdated decor and the fact that the breakfast options were a bit limited. Additionally, the hotel's distance from the city center made getting around a bit less convenient than I had hoped. Overall, it offered decent value for the price, but it certainly needs some improvements. 😊
