“Sonesta Essential Columbus serves a practical purpose for business travelers seeking proximity to corporate offices and Fort Benning. I noted the late check-out options and on-site fitness center, which add convenience, and the outdoor pool provides a spot for relaxation. While some reports mention inconsistencies in service and cleanliness, the hotel's central location remains a potential advantage for those focused on area attractions.”
