The Plaza Hotel Columbus at Capitol Square
"One ice machine worked, most of the ice/vending rooms should be condemned. No hot water for the shower Sunday. My room wasn't as described. The fridge was sitting in the middle of the room. This place was in disrepair and dilapidated. Very poor experience."
