The only downside was that none of the vending machines on the property worked. You had to buy drinks/snacks at the front desk

I chose this hotel because it advertises "free airport shuttle and free shuttle to surrounding areas". Upon arrival at the airport I called the hotel to request for a shuttle pick up only to find out they do not have one. I asked if this was just for today and if there is still shuttle available for surrounding areas- they said no, they do not provide any shuttle at all. Both Expedia and Hotels.com are showing free airport shuttle and free shuttle to surrounding areas. THEY DO NOT. AND THAT IS DECEIVING. I incurred at least another $75 in Uber/ Lyft rides becauue of these rides (to and from the airport and to OSU). I should have chosen the hotel next to it (Fairfield Inn) that DID offer free shuttle service. FRUSTRATED and DISAPPOINTED by their false and misleading advertising.
