Columbus, Indiana: Holiday Inn

January 2025, weekend, one night

Arrival and status perks

I reserved a standard king guestroom online for this stay, and received an upgrade to a king suite before we arrived. I checked in online, and stopped at the front desk to get our keys when we arrived around 7PM. My bonus points posted to my account the next day.

Guestroom

I loved the location of this guestroom. It is in the corner on the top floor. It was spacious, quiet, and comfortable. The living area contained a sofa, soft chair, desk and chair, suitcase bench, small tables, large flatscreen TV, microwave, mini-fridge, and Keurig coffeemaker.

Gold perks and check-in

Check-in went smoothly. The agent asked my preference for room location (yes, I had entered my requests online when I made the reservation). I told her I usually prefer a top floor corner room in a quiet area. I did not receive any extras for having Gold status, other than the automatic 250 bonus points.

Guestroom 319

This guestroom is located fairly close to the elevator on the third floor of this 4-floor hotel. If you enlarge the floor diagram farther down in this post, you can see the exact room location. During check-in, the agent had used positive words to tell me she had the perfect room for me, so I was surprised to see my room so close to the elevator. Fortunately, hallway noise was not a problem.

Bathroom in guestroom 319

This guestroom has a long entrance hall with a large bathroom off the hall. The bathroom is tile, it has a large vanity, and nice large shower with glass doors. I loved the bathroom in this guestroom! Bath amenities, good quality towels, and a hair dryer were provided.
