I was at Columbus a few weeks ago. You'll stay at the super 8. It's pretty new and comfortable. Breakfast is ok and there are washers/dryers on each floor. I had Bryan as a road instructor. I did not spend time with the other instructor but classmates were positive. You will spend time on the road with other students in the cab. There are various roads: downtown by the university, interstate , rural, etc. Become very aware of where your trailer is...I almost nailed a jersey barrier on a nasty right turn.

Interstate:

Commercial trade, business, movement of goods or money, or transportation from one state to another, regulated by the Federal Department Of Transportation (DOT).

That's great info thanks. How was testing with the third party dot to get you're license? I'm not liking this down town lol.
