Staff were friendly, parking was easy, and the free breakfast was great. It was in a safe and convenient location, with only a short walk to local concert venues.
The staff were friendly and courteous. Our room was comfortable and clean. The complimentary breakfast was excellent with a good variety. For other dining, several excellent restaurants were within easy walking distance.
This was out first visit to Columbia and i couldn't have picked a more perfect hotel.
The location was right in the middle of everything. We walked across the street for an amazing dinner then strolled around and found a great dessert cafe. Too many unique choices for dining.
The hotel is clean, friendly and comfortable all around.
The rooms are very roomy and exceptionally clean.
I always stay at hotels that offer breakfast and this one did not disappoint. The variety of offerings included fresh cut fruits, omelets, hot cereals and our favorite waffle station. This place had regular waffles and blueberry. Coffees were good too
We will be back!
This is a very nice property. It is very clean, the rooms are spacious and the location is incredibly convenient to events and dining. The staff was helpful and pleasant ! We enjoyed our stay and will definitely stay again
