Old just like the other motels in the area

Family run motel. The family was very nice. Definitely an older building. They have done some remodeling inside the rooms without changing the layout. Very old buildings, bathrooms and stairs. On a very busy road that is loud all night long.

The staff is very helpful and friendly. I like that the parking lot has cameras and the front desk has a screen to monitor them. One late morning my husband checked to see if there was coffee in the lobby but there wasn’t. He turned around to leave and the front desk person told him to wait, and he made him coffee. They care about service and it shows. The room was great and larger than most.

Not everyone can afford paying first class prices, but we all deserve first class service. That's what you get at The Columbus Inn on Aurora. The only hotel for any and all of my future lodging needs.

There is nothing good about this property, it is old with dirty floor, bathroom, beddings and overall filthy. I took this facility because there was nothing else available in the area. Even the the door lock was sloppy with the key system. It is a place for one night stand for hookers

The room is showing its age and without maintenance. Stains on the wall and roof. The curtains has burn marks on it. Carpet hasnt been refreshed in a long time causing smells. Homeless encampment next door. Cheapest around but not again.
