Loved staying at the Independence. Upon entering the building everything seemed comfortable and cozy. They have wonderful front desk employees, eager to help with any needs. Our family came and had dinner in the restaurant and of course we hit the daily breakfast bar. It’s quiet but also feels vibrant. I would definitely stay again.

Great place to stay. Nice location, very clean and friendly staff.
Warm and friendly check in, rooms are nice and clean, staff is excellent.
Dinner in Territory restaurant - menu is not extensive, but food was very tasty.
Would recommend hotel and restaurant if you are in this area.
The property is beautiful and clean. The staff is excellent. The bed in room 219 is VERY soft. If that is an issue, ask for another room and check the bed's firmness first.
We enjoyed our stay.
The room was very clean and spacious and the staff were so friendly and helpful! We will definitely stay here again when we visit our daughter at OSU!!!
The room was immaculate and the furniture was very comfortable. The bed was the most comfortable we have experienced in a very long time.
The staff were so accommodating and friendly.
Hotel was incredibly well designed.
