La Quinta Inn by Wyndham Columbia SE / Fort Jackson
Breakfast was ok but no variety of hot food. Was the same choices all week. Pool wasnt cleaned. Room was good for the price but is under remodel. Overall was good for the price of the room for the week.

Wyndham Garden Columbia/Ft. Jackson
The breakfast was okay....would've liked to have had a better variety. The lounge was closed, so you have to go off the property or order online. The bathroom is small, and drained really slow. Even the sink was slow to drain. Other than that, the stay was good.
