Columbus to Cleveland: where to stop

A stop about every 45 minutes

The best bet in each stretch: a likely-clean restroom first, then a travel center or gas. Estimates come from who runs the store until drivers review it.

• 169 Mansfield · Bellville Likely cleanest. Cracker Barrel 62 mi from Columbus 1 hr in
• 231 Royalton Road Likely cleanest. Chick-fil-A Strongsville · 125 mi from Columbus 2 hr in

Long stretches without a likely-clean stop

• 63 miles, about 1 hr: from Exit 169 (OH) to Exit 231 (OH). Stop before it if you can.
