"I stayed at this rental for the weekend to watch Ohio State football game. The place was in a great neighborhood close to the college and lots of entertainment. The rental was asleep up to 12 people, but it only has one full bath so keep that in mind. I will definitely stay there again."

6/10 Okay
"the stay was nice and room was clean. Unfortunately, the air conditioner was not working. We informed the front desk and the staff said turn it off and turn it back on. We did that and it did not work. We spent the entire night with no air conditioning, and it was very hot"
