Book 2 Star Hotels in Columbia

"If I could give this place negative stars, I absolutely would. Calling this a “hotel” is generous. This place felt like the abandoned set of a low-budget horror movie where the waffle maker was somehow the main character. Everything in our room was broken. Not one thing. EVERYTHING. The bathroom looked like it was growing its own ecosystem. There was black mold all over the shower and ceiling, and every time I walked in there I felt like I needed a tetanus shot and an exorcism. Our toilet also clogged almost immediately because apparently they believe in “minimal water flushing technology.” And let’s talk about this “best hot continental breakfast” they brag about. Sir… where? The entire breakfast consisted of one lonely, crusty waffle maker fighting for its life in the corner like it had also given up hope. No eggs. No sausage. No biscuits. No fruit. Just disappointment with syrup. The area around the hotel felt incredibly unsafe too. The second we pulled in, my survival instincts kicked in. I slept with one eye open and my shoes on. The place was also almost fully booked with traveling contractors/laborers. To make matters even worse, I came home with a horrible rash all over my left arm and had to go to the doctor immediately after getting home today. I was told it was most likely from either bugs in the room or the cleanliness of the bedding! Save your money. Save your health. Save your sanity. I’d rather sleep in a Walmart parking lot wrapped in a tortilla blanket"

"We stayed for University of South Carolina graduation weekend. Even though it was a busy weekend, this newly remodeled property met our needs. The location was close to where we needed to be and they accommodated our two friendly well behaved dogs. The room was clean and had basic amenities but I wished it had an iron.(there was a steamer in the room). The breakfast was excellent. I thought it was a nice touch that there were cupcakes and snacks in the lobby on arrival to celebrate the graduates of USC!"

"I would give it five star but unfortunately there’s one thing that i disliked. everything about the hotel was nice, they even give a paper with all of the local restaurants and things to do in the area along with having a bar. the room was clean and accessible and very accommodating however my dislike is that the accessibility rooms are for some reason on the top floor and in the very back compared to the elevator. i was made aware of this though before arrival by the wonderful staff- i just don’t understand why the accessibility rooms are the furtherest walking distance in the hotel which can pose a problem to others with mobility issues (this includes being fully carpeted which would also be more difficult for wheelchair users) "
