The Olentangy Motor Inn is a friendly and accommodating place. The rooms are comfortable and were renovated in 2023. They are very clean, with a particularly impressive shower offering adjustable, high water pressure and plenty of hot water. The location is quiet, safe, and convenient, a short drive from the heart of OSU and near all kinds of places from bars to stores. The staff is excellent, very responsive, and friendly. Management is attentive, checking on guests' experiences. There is a reduced rate for patients of a nearby cancer center. The office is not labeled; guests check in at the attached coffee shop where the clerks are also baristas. A train track runs behind the motel, which some guests can hear during the day, but it is not very loud and does not bother everyone.
Nice place to stay. Staff is friendly and accommodating. Reasonably priced with free breakfast.

Cute little motel. Reasonably priced. Accepts dogs. Friendly service. Nothing fancy, a pretty standard room, but clean and well maintained. Have stayed here several times when I've been in the area. Would recommend!!!

Check in was prompt. Room was very clean and comfortable. Fridge, microwave, and a big tv all made our stay nice. Shower was good as well. We stayed for a concert at Ohio Stadium and the walk wasn’t bad at all. Location of the motor inn was perfect. We will stay again when in the area.
