SAVE YOUR RECEIPTS for parking and you will be reimbursed. Lose your receipts, and you will not be reimbursed. You may enter/exit as you please, this is a flat rate per day.
 * PARKING is $21 PER DAY**. The hotel has valet parking only, plan on $63 out-of-pocket for 3 nights parking.

Hotel rooms are paid in advance by Constellation. They will probably require a credit card at check in to cover any incidentals, or repairs from room-trashing rock star parties, which will NOT be reimbursed.

33 EAST NATIONWIDE BLVD. COLUMBUS, OH 43215 UNITED STATES Hotel Front Desk: 1-614-461-4100

The highway access to this location is weird but easy: I-71 SOUTH EXIT SPRING ST., RIGHT TURN ONLY AT END OF EXIT RAMP RIGHT ONTO HIGH ST., RIGHT ON NATIONWIDE BLVD. RIGHT INTO HOTEL DROP-OFF & VALET

I'm not positive about this, but I think I remember the 71 > Spring Street exit is from the //left// lane instead of the ususal right lane exit. Looks like it on the map too: (if this map is too wide for your screen, scroll right > to see the freeway exit)
