Not a horrible experience. My son had a boat given to him by his brother-in-law in Indy and I got the pleasure of the 1000 mile trip to retrieve it. I got a friend to drive out with me arriiving at 6:30PM and leaving at 7:15. Our plan was to play it by ear as to making a complete drive home. We would have arrived at 3:00 am not allowing for much sleep. I decided to stop somewhere North of Columbus on I-71 and stay overnight before the final 3-4 hour journey home.
At the Mid-Ohio exit I decided to turn left to the knights Inn. I only wanted a place to sleep that was out of the heat and somewhat clean. It was around 11:30 PM. This knights Inn fit the bill.
The desk clerk was polite and helpful. We got the room for $50 on this summer mid week trip with a AAA discount. The room was a pleasant surprise. It had that common "hotel deodorizer" smell but was definitely a non-smoking room. It was durning the heat wave of 2006 so the 95 degree day had left residual heat. We cranked the A/C and cooled the room. In fact by morning it felt like a refirgerator. While the rooms opened with an old Key they were clean and well kept. This was obviously an old hotel - I think had formerly been the derrick hotel. It had towels and soap. while no coffee in the room there was a TV, Microwave and refrigerator. two double beds as well. The TV worked well. We slept thru the night showered in the morning with the fresh soft water. The Continental breakfast was a cheap one with tiny boxed type doughnuts and two cereal flavors. The coffee was weak. For a $50 room for two people that was fine. A fair continental breakfast is well worth $3-$5 per person. I'd rate this breakfast at $2.50. It appeared that this place was well used by traveling contractors. Men who would spend a week or more there while doing local work. I however was very happy to find it as on a previous trip in this direction had stayed at a hampton inn at the previous exit off I71 and it had cost me about $80 three years prior. While that one had a pool and exercise room, I was only looking for a place to sleep and shower.

Good luck on your travels and be Safe

we had an awful experiece. The door wouldnt open, the manager had to come and open it for us, the batteries were dead in the remote, we couldnt get the tv to work properly, there was a pit full of trash behind the building, we decided we wanted to leave and the manager spent ten minutes arguing and being rude with my wife. we were only in the room for 15 min and he said we couldnt have all our money back. there is more but they wont post my review if I write it
