Place close to Augusta National on short notice
The room was dated and humid feeling as we entered with a musty smell. That said it was clean enough and not a place that I was concerned about hygene. Resteraunts nearby were middle of the road, but a 5 minute drive ??? had us near a nice new mall that had numerous nicer places. Had a nice meal at Bonefish Grill.

Cheap
Considering the price, the hotel was exactly that--cheap. Breakfast was disappointing, the pool could barely be called that, and the hallways smelled like smoke. The comforter had burn holes on them and the air conditioning barely kept the temperature down. It was really disappointing as a whole, thank goodness we only had to go there to sleep. If you want a cheap place to crash, go here, but if you have some money spend, I would definitely put some in to get a more decent hotel.

could have been better
Pool was not open due to maintenance. One drink vending machine outside the lobby. Good location for getting to downtown.

Disappointment
It was difficult to find because it was located off of I-20. The lobby and hallways showed wear and lack of cleanliness and were not airconditioned. The room was surprisingly clean and comfortable.

Friendly Service
I traveled to Columbia for a basic training graduation. I somehow ended up in a smoking room and the manager refused to change it for me. I have never smoked a day in my life so it was really gross. I had more than one room and the non-smoking room was better but had iron burn on the wall. The staff was friendly otherwise, nice southern hospitality.

well worth the price
Stayed here while attending the Masters.Only 1 hr. away (70 mi.) but the price was 20% of what you would pay at Augusta. Room was clean and comfortable. I will definitely stay here again the next time we go. Easy access on & off Interstate 20.
