TownePlace Suites Columbus Easton

Visited July 2019
UPDATE (2019-July-22): My room was not cleaned by 5:30 pm on July 21. I then placed their version of the do not disturb sign on the door. I also discovered that my razor was no longer in the shower. I do not know if they assumed I checked out because I leave a daily tip for maid service. Upon checkout, I spoke with the front desk rep about each issue. I was assured that each issue will be addressed.
I’m in Columbus for the annual Jazz and Rib Fest (July 19-21, 2019). If you have never been, I highly recommend it. Local and national artists perform Friday through Sunday. Other than food, drinks and parking, the event is free. Friday night headliner was Norman Brown; Saturday, Brian Culbertson.
TownePlace Suites is in the Easton area right off the Morse Road exit off I-270. Springhill Suites is adjacent. It is close to the Easton Town Center Shopping Mall is less than 1 mile away.
I reserved a double room. I ended up traveling solo and asked for a king upon arrival. I am not a fan of first floor rooms so I kept the double.
There appears to be a group or 2 staying here this weekend. Several children are not being supervised. They are running up and down the hallways. They can be heard running on the floor above me also. Yesterday, I had to call the room above me. I informed the dad that it sounded like someone was going to crash through my ceiling. He chuckled and said he’d take care of it. While you can hear noise from upstairs (the ceiling Iamp rattles with the stomping, running, etc. from upstairs) nothing could be heard from anyone on either side.
The many amenities make the room nice. Kitchen with ceramic stove top, refrigerator, microwave, coffee maker, toaster, etc.; dining table for 4; spacious bathroom; multiple power outlets; seating area; comfortable bed; smart TV. In addition to the local channels, you can watch ESPN (also 2 & U), NFL Network, NHL Network, MLB Network, Golf Channel, HBO, Showtime, multiple news channels, Cartoon Network, Nickelodeon, Disney Channel, Lifetime and others. Streaming services are also available (Netflix, Hulu, Crackle, YouTube and Pandora). Charging outlets throughout the lobby area are also a bonus. WiFi is available throughout the property, including outside patio.
Adults and children keep themselves entertained with the billiards table, pool, interactive drawing TV screen, fitness center and bar area.
Blow dryers are not supplied in the room. I do have 2 complaints. One, the sink was dirty upon my arrival. I could smell lettuce as I got closer to the sink. Two, the trash can under the sink needed to be cleaned. It smelled of trash when I opened the cabinet door.
Overall, I give TownePlace Suites 4.5 out of 5. The noise could have been avoided with the children not running and doing who knows what above me.
