We stayed here for the weekend to attend a family member's college graduation at the university of south carolina. The rooms were nice and clean. The hotel lobby was very nice and the free coffee was a big plus for us. I don't know Columbia very well, but it seemed to be in a good location - just a few... More

Perhaps because it was graduation weekend at the University of Carolina, we paid over $250.00/nt. for a room at this well-located, but below average hotel. The lobby carpets were stained and worn, and the bedrooms had not been vacuumed well (food found under the bed). At this price, I expected free wi-fi and at least a continental breakfast; but there... More

This hotel looks like it was in need of some updates. It has everything one would need when traveling to an important function like a graduation-good location, friendly staff, a nice breakfast buffet but it's definitely dated. Beware if you book with an outside vender like Expedia because even though the rooms are the same price you will not get... More

Spent one night here on company business. Check in was efficient and received room key quickly. Room (company paid) was 4016 and didn't have exterior view, rather te window overlooked the hotel lobby and pool area. The 4th floor is right up at the atrium roof so there was metal superstructure just above the window. Indoor pool looked nice Room... More

Extremely nice staff (check-in, house keeping, and dining). The location was convenient (walking distance - up to 1 mile) to downtown spots (eating, Capital, USC...) Everything (rooms, decor) seemed a little dated and tired. Price was good, would stay there again. More

My son and I stayed here while visiting the USC campus. Very nice hotel. Clean, convenient, friendly staff. It was roughly a six block walk to campus, but not a difficult walk. There is a complimentary shuttle to and from the Columbia airport. We were waiting around the lobby for the shuttle, and went into Garnets Sports bar and Grille.... More

I don't consider myself to be an overly picky traveler, just someone who appreciates a clean, quiet, and up-to-date property.
