Top Thurston Hotel Reviews

Days Inn by Wyndham Columbus East Airport

8/10 Good

"The staff was helpful and pleasant. Our stay was peaceful and quite. The room was very clean."

Spark by Hilton Columbus East Pickerington

10/10 Excellent

"We visited from Pittsburgh to spend time with Ohio family. Our room was spacious and I liked that there were two chairs for both of us to watch TV. It was clean & comfortable. Breakfast was delicious and there was a variety of things to choose from. There are lots of waffle toppings! We found the staff to be friendly and welcoming. We ate at Cracker Barrel the first night. As always, it was wonderful! The second night we went to La Fogata. We ordered the Grande Fajitas and it was enough for not just two, but four people would have eaten until full and it was delicious! Both places are just a short walk from the hotel. We visit family in Ohio frequently and we would love to stay again."

Best Western Lakewood Inn

8/10 Good

"This day was OK always a fun place for us to stay. We stay in the balcony suites that overlook the pool and the hot tub. We also have a Jacuzzi in our room and a nice shower. The breakfast was disgusting, but I didn’t expect it to be great as we’ve stayed here before we stay for the ambience and the privacy. It’s very quiet, peaceful the rooms don’t smell like smoke. The always don’t smell like smoke. It’s a very clean older hotel the lobby clerk at night. The older gentleman was very, very nice. However, the kitchen staff was very rude and unhelpful, I said. Back."
