Lovely room / charged for parking
Our room was quite lovely! Bed wasn’t bad, had a pretty good night’s sleep. Huge shower. Check in/Day staff was so friendly. Six or seven minute walk to Nationwide Arena so that was great, since we were watching a concert there. The $39 charge for ‘valet’ parking (which was someone parking your car into a spot right next to the valet stand) was a bit much. Why ya going to charge to have your guests park in the hotel parking lot? That part was a bit ridiculous, otherwise we had a nice stay.

We were in town for an event. The room was the Cleanest room experience in the past several years of staying at hotels around the country! The room was also Spacious, Quite, Warm, and very Comfortable. Staff was excellent, professional, friendlly and very responsive. Will stay hear again if the opportunity arises.

We stayed at the AC Hotel on a trip to see a concert at Kemba Live. It was a very convenient location and the staff was great! The rooftop bar was nice. The only negative was how loud it was to slide the bathroom door closed and there was no fan in the bathroom.

The property was delightful, along with the surrounding neighborhood of things to do and more things to eat. Only gripe would be you either have to park yiurself in a surrounding parking gargae or the hotel will charge you 40 bucks to park there. Boo

There's a bar across the street on the Park St. side that was blaring music until 3am on Saturday evening. It was fine on Friday. If you stay here on a weekend, stay on the other side of the building. Parking is valet only and $39 per day. Other than that, we had a nice stay. Staff was great and rooms were clean and nice. Nice roof top bar.

Location is excellent, 5 minute walk to the convention center. Staff was friendly and Ian at the desk especially represented your property and Marriott name very well. He was welcoming and informative. Michelle made my morning with a big bright smile and Happy Birthday song during breakfast. Nice touches like dried lavender to put in small bags one evening. If You have trouble sleeping, ask for a room on other side (we were in 404) music at bars was very very loud on Saturday until 2 AM. Thursday, Friday nice and quiet. There was also an Ohio game that day so that could have added to it.
