Sam’s spot is a solid 1-1.5 miles from OSU’s campus and is a fantastic area to stay at if you are able to walk 1.5-2 miles to the stadium. It’s far enough from the student chaos that you can’t hear anything, if at all. But it’s close enough to the short north and to campus if you feel like exploring. It is an incredibly walkable and lively area as well. Everything was extra clean when we got there. I would definitely recommend staying here and if you have a rental car - there’s a garage spot right underneath the unit which is perfect for it. But if you’re like us and just plan on walking around - that’s also totally doable.
