Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was lovely! The rooms were spacious and tastefully decorated, although cleanliness could have been better. The size was comfortable for our group of four, but we had to ask for some amenities that should have been provided. The service was exceptional overall, but there was a concerning incident with staff yelling and chasing a customer. The location was perfect for our night out in Columbia, offering easy access to shopping, dining, and entertainment. The dining experience was a nice bonus, although it fell a bit short of our expectations. The facilities were adequate for our needs.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were spacious and tastefully decorated, but unfortunately, they had old beds, poor toilets, and were not as clean as expected, plus there was a bad smell lingering in the bathroom. The service was wonderful and very accommodating, although they had to correct some issues during our stay. The location was great for the events we attended, being outstanding and really convenient for travelers. Dining was perfect to start the day, but lacked some breakfast options I was looking for.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms, despite some issues with old beds and poor toilets, were beautiful, clean, and spacious, with convenient amenities like a Keurig and mini-fridge. The service was excellent, with friendly and accommodating staff, though some experienced discomfort. The location was fantastic for both weary travelers and those looking to explore Columbia's offerings. However, the dining options left much to be desired. Overall, the hotel provided a comfortable stay with some room for improvement.
