What guests think

Reviews of Suburban Studios Columbus East describe a budget-friendly extended-stay stay with highly variable experiences, with some guests satisfied while others encountered significant issues affecting comfort and expectations across housekeeping, room condition, and the surrounding environment.

Frequent complaints include smoke odors in non-smoking rooms, worn or broken furnishings and appliances, and kitchenettes without basic dishes or working elements. Service is split between warm, helpful staff and reports of rudeness or an unattended front desk, while parking and the area sometimes feel unsafe and late-night noise is mentioned. Breakfast is typically minimal grab-and-go items, and while a few note good value or quiet stays, others found the property dated and not as advertised. Expect a basic, no-frills stay with inconsistent quality.

This was by far the worst place I've ever stayed. We booked this hotel for the Sonic Temple Festival. We ended up leaving a day early because of the ants infestation in the room. There are stains on every surface. The sheets had spots of blood on them. The towels smelled horrible and were stained. Online says check in is 7am. They will chharge you extra for arriving before 3pm. The kitchenette has absolutely nothing but a barely running fridge, a non-working stove and the worlds smallest microwave. There was no soap or way to wash dishes. No coffee pot. The bathroom gas to be cleaned before we could use it. The tub had a ton of hair in it. Toilet has pee all over. There was a half used mini bottle of soap and an open bar of soap. The curtain had brown stains.the handrails in the lobby were caked with dirt and grime. There is absolutely no handicapped access. I could keep going but theres no point.

Parking lot is a mess and it’s not big enough. The toilet keeps running, the air conditioning doesn’t work. We went to use the couch as a pull out bed and the mattress is all stained and there’s no sheets in the room or on the mattress. The room is nice aesthetically. Through the channels offered are not many. The free breakfast is very good.

I would not reccmmend this place at all. I thought I had reserved a room with 2 queen beds and it was a room with one queen bed and a pull out that didn't even stay flat when you sat on it. It kept lifting up off the floor. The kitchen wasn't functional unless you brought your own dishes. There was no hot water in the room. The bathtub was filthy with a chalky film on it. I think the staff is also the cleaning service. Every time we went to leave the hallways smelled of rotten garbage. I asked for 2 pillows since there were only 3 bed pillows and was only given 1. There is clearly no smoking in the hotel but yet staff would smoke outside and bring the smoky smell in. Extremely disappointed. The complimentary breakfast was less then desirable with packaged oatmeal, stale muffins and granola bars that weren't even breakfast bars. Wifi was glitchy at best.

The place was in total disrepair with an aweful stench. The signs were destroyed and pot smell everywhere. No curtain for the shower and paneling falling off the cabinets. Absolutely disgusting.

I wasn't expecting much, but even my low expectations were too much. "Suite" is a misnomer for a smallish room with kitchenette . There were NO cups or bowls or utensils in room. Even plastic ones would be a cheap upgrade. NO cups in room..none...was glad I had soda bottle to take my meds. Water also stunk. NO COFFEE...not in room, not in lobby, not anywhere. Again, a small investment by owners would go a long way.

Hotel was old. Carpet worn. Drawer front was broken as was the hide a bed part of the sofa. Towels were in short supply- there was 3 of us but we could only have 2 sets of towels at a time because they didn't have enough. Employees were pretty apathetic- one was for more interested in wandering outside the front smoking while on her phone than actually doing her job. And the clients were horrible- smoking and talking right outside the outside door until all hours (which happened to be outside our window) Lots of slamming doors, yelling, screaming and noise until 3am or later, with the employees shrugging. We stayed 6 nights and this was every night. If we could have been refunded we would have gone elsewhere. Do yourself a favor and stay somewhere else. This is NOT the hotel you're looking for.

This property did not look anything like the outside of the original picture posted from here. It was good for a place to stay when you aren’t there for a long time. The staff was nice and respectful when they were there. They were not in the office many times when you needed help or to check out in the morning. The surrounding area is alittle sketchy so I don’t recommend staying if it is just you but if you are in a group it is a place to stay for cheap. You get what you pay for.
