The sheets were rough and itchy. First time I've ever experienced that at a hotel. There was no lotion in the room. It seemed like a very bare bones place. Breakfast is not free, nor is there any service. The only option is to order off a board that is Starbucks. We will not stay there again.

Service was great! Very friendly staff all the way around. Unfortunately the noise outside on work being done on the street was very loud and kept us awake. The walls are paper thin between rooms so that didn't help either. We may have had bad luck with placement of our room, but everything else was fine. Great location for the college tour.

My family and I really enjoyed our stay. We didn’t have to hike our belongings to the hotel because the parking was so convenient. The decor was clean modern but still pretty inviting. The check-in process was easy and the representative at the desk was friendly and helpful. Our room was very clean and comfortable. The hotel is located in the heart of beautiful Columbia, so expect some city noise at night and in the early morning, trains and ambulances. Overall, our stay was excellent. I would stay here again and recommend it to a friend.

Our room, 405, was very nice. The one issue I had was light coming in from the pool area. I was able to use a clothes hanger to close the curtain as much as possible but thee was still light coming in. Also, on Saturday night thee was no one to cook meals, very disappointed.
