Embassy Suites by Hilton Hotels in Columbus

Worst experience I've ever had with staff at any business. I wish I were exaggerating. The hotel room itself reeked so badly that my friend and I jokingly referred it as the ”urine room” all weekend. I accidentally left a bag with my prescription medications and toiletries and quickly called them the day I checked out. They were reassuring and told me it would be mailed the next day. I called the next day and they said it would be shipped the day after. This continued for six days. After pointing out that they were lying to me and not following through, they told me to talk to the manager, Brian. It took me three days (Wednesday through friday) to get in touch with Brian; he was on break, then at lunch, then they couldn't find him. Each time, they said they would leave him a message that I called and that he would call me back. He never did and they still hadn't shipped my bag 7 days later. Once I was desperate for my medication (and toothbrush!) I finally got ahold of him and it was the most demeaning and petty someone has ever spoken to me, but he did say he would take 50 dollars off my bill for the inconvenience and the three hours total I spent on the phone trying to speak to anyone at this hell hole who could help me. I called the next day to ask when that would be reflected on my account and the person on the phone said ”that is not how we do things but I'll talk to Brian and see if he wants to send you money out of his own pocket.” I didn't get his name but he identified himself as Brian's superior. Horribly demeaning, unprofessional, and petty behavior towards someone who was just desperate to get their medicine and toiletries back. (PS I offered to drive to Columbus to get my bag at first and they assured me it would be shipped promptly). Highly recommend going anywhere else in Columbus than this hotel

I was very pleased with the facilities. The room was very clean and spacious. All needed amenities were present. I was welcomed at check-in and felt the breakfast buffet was great. The meeting space provided was ample for the needs of the organization I traveled with.
