The only positive was the bed was comfortable. Waited over 10 minutes to check in. There was a sign that said they stepped away, yet could hear someone talking in a room behind the desk. No one at desk for most of the stay. The lady was rude when she did come to the desk. No toilet paper in my room upon check in, had to come to the office and get it myself. Batteries were dying in the tv remote, they refused to replace them, so I had to buy new batteries. Bathroom was dirty. Paid for no smoking, room smelled of smoke and there were burn marks in the chair and tub also on toilet lid.

Disliked: Amenities
There was no soap or shampoo in the bathroom, the baseplates for the standing light fixture were rusty, there was no ice bucket. The check-in front desk person, when I walked in the lobby, muttered in a negative voice, "Here comes another one." He was not really friendly, but did his job efficiently. I need to book a 5 night stay in Columbia beginning this weekend, but I will not book it in this hotel. Oh, and the drapes did not close completely, and I was on the ground floor, so my privacy was compromised.

The room was disgusting. The shower curtain was moldy, tower rack was rusty, and there was a live cockroach in the tub when we arrived. There were nasty brown stains on the tub as well. There was a very loud and rude couple next door we could hear screaming at each other at 4:15 in the morning through the bathroom wall.

Never ate there breakfast. Never stayed the night. Checked in at 3 pm 10/18/25 there was several men just hanging out in the parking lot, didn't feel it was a safe enviroment. Was actually there maybe 10 minutes and left to go get dinner, was gone about 2 hours and when we returned all the same men still hanging out in parking lot. TV didn't work in room, the pillows on the bed appeared dirty/at the least pillow cases and sheets stained. Went back outside to get the rest of our belongings and could of gotten high off the smell of marajuina, very overwhelming. At that point we didn't feel safe on property between the men in the parking lot and the drugs. So my husband went in an told the gentleman working the desk we was leaving and ask if they could at least refund the second night stay being we was suppose to be there 2 nights, but didn't actually stay one night. Gentleman at desk said he would have to report the request to his manager and would let him know we checked out at 7:15 pm 10/18/2025 the same day we checked in. So far the charge for both nights is still on my card no refund. I just want to be sure other families are aware and don't make the same mistake we did. I'm in the process of contacting whoever i need to in order to report the very poor condition of this hotel.
