This place is really nice, and was a great option for my family when we came down from NE Ohio to visit COSI. It would probably be a good option for an Ohio State game or any other downtown event or to check out German Village, etc. The neighborhood is slowly improving, so there may still be some shenanigans, but we felt pretty safe even with small kids, despite there having been some shouting and police lights one of the nights we were there (obviously not the fault of or any reflection upon the hosts). There are a bunch of hip local restaurants, bars, etc. within walking distance as well, so this is even better for young people hoping to go out and have a drink and a bite before settling in for the evening.
