Renovated 2story(7C) OSU/ExpoCenter/Central NearEVERYTHING
Guest rating: 4.9 / 5
Overview
This is a renovated two-story, two-bedroom, one-bath home-style rental in an off-campus area near Ohio State University, offering a private entrance and keyless self-check-in. The property blends updated design details with practical comforts, and management notes it does not accept bookings from local guests, with proof of ID sometimes required at check-in.
Rooms & Layout
The unit sleeps guests across two bedrooms -- one with a queen bed and one with two twin beds -- plus two additional twin-size Simmons memory foam folding guest beds with linens and extra pillows for larger groups. All bedding, towels, and washcloths are provided, along with toiletries, a hairdryer, and an iron and ironing board.
Kitchen & Amenities
A fully equipped kitchen includes a refrigerator/freezer, stove/oven, microwave, toaster, coffee maker, cookware, dishware, utensils, and basic cooking staples like oil, salt, pepper, and spices. The property is smoke-free and includes central air conditioning, heating, free Wi-Fi, a smart TV with free streaming for cable channels, and basic cleaning supplies, along with smoke and carbon monoxide detectors and exterior security cameras.
Parking
Guests receive up to two free parking spots in the building's own private lot, with additional on-street parking available nearby -- a notable convenience in this dense off-campus neighborhood.
Location & Dining
The property sits within walking distance of High Street bus lines, multiple bus stops (as close as 211m), and a wide range of restaurants, bars, and coffee shops, including Fourth Street Taproom & Kitchen, TaKorea, Halal Munchies, Mikey's Late Night Slice, and Modern Southern Table. It is roughly 1.4 miles from Ohio Stadium and Mapfre Stadium, 1.5 miles from the Short North Arts District and Italian Village, 2 miles from the Convention Center and Schottenstein Center, and about 3 miles from Downtown Columbus, with John Glenn Columbus International Airport around 9km away.
Best for
This property suits groups, families, or students/visitors attending OSU events, Ohio Expo Center activities, or Columbus concerts and games, given its two-bedroom layout with extra folding beds and proximity to Ohio Stadium, Mapfre Stadium, and Newport Music Hall. It also appeals to budget-conscious travelers who value free private parking and a full kitchen for self-catering, plus those who want walkable access to High Street's restaurants, bars, and bus lines.
Travel tips
High Street bus lines are within easy walking distance and can connect guests to most parts of Columbus, making a car optional for city trips despite the private free parking on offer. Plan on roughly a 15-20 minute walk to the Ohio Expo Center, Newport Music Hall, and Gateway Film Center, and note that the nearest bus stop is only about 211 meters from the property. Since self-check-in is keyless, confirm arrival instructions in advance, and local guests should be prepared to provide ID before receiving the check-in code.
