Hilton Garden Inn Columbus/Edinburgh

Hilton Garden Inn Columbus/Edinburgh

8/10 Good
"We had a great stay. It was our first time.Very Friendly staff. The only 2 downsides. First, containers of sugar in the rooms instead of those little packets that don't have much in them. I had to go down to the lobby to get more. Second, bigger towels for the pool. They are so small that by the time you dry one leg the towel is soaked and you need another one. Overall it was a great time. We will definitely stay there again!"
