Sorry to hear about the decline of the Campbell. We stayed there several times and it is the only hotel that is within staggering distance of the stadium. Stayed at the Indigo a year ago and it was a nice hotel. Loud, but within walking distance of many things. We walked over to the Dust Bowl while we were there.
I suspect but don’t know, that the Campbell might be for sale in a year or two. Considerable renovation to the rooms is necessary and the restaurant recently closed. The bar actually does pretty well I’m told. But yeah, the decor in the rooms was quaint in it’s day, but post Co-Vid it just screams dust and germs. I was there a year ago and my room had wash clothes three different shades of “white”, toilet seat broken, and the vending was inoperable. Not that I would have used it. This was once a place I stayed at 25 nights a year.
I stay at the Mayo now when in town, if for no other reason than Elvis slept there. Like Elvis, the Mayo had a comeback but it is starting to show its age too. The Tulsa Club is the best hotel downtown for the price, but that price often spikes on the weekends and that’s why I don’t recommend it to folks looking to stay Uber close to campus. There are several fine Airbnb’s within walking distance of the stadium, if you want a room with pictures of People’s families on the wall of your hotel room. But I prefer hotels especially now that prices are comparable. I stayed at one over near Buck Atom’s when the hotels were booked, didn’t read the fine print on the rental agreement and got charged $29.00 fee for not watering the plants and leaving the blinds closed. WTF with hipster millennials.
