The room was clean. We were there for military graduation and the hotel was very close to Ft. Jackson. The location was good and had multiple places to eat ( waffle house in the parking lot). We were there for 3 nights. However, our keys would not work. Every day we had to get them redone. Front desk kept saying that 1 key deletes the other key?? There were 2 of us in the room so why would it do that? If my husband left to do something he couldn't get back in and vice versa. That was a pain to keep redoing those keys every day. Only other complaint would be that the water doesn't get very hot. I had it turned all the way to the hottest setting in the shower and it still was just warm. Breakfast was good. There was hot food option and decent choices. Staff for breakfast were very friendly and helpful. Although we didn't need housekeeping to clean our room, they were very accommodating in bringing us whatever fresh towels or anything else that we needed. I would give this hotel an 8 out of 10. But overall a decent place to stay. I would stay there again if I was in the area

Won’t be back…

At check-in, the clerk was extremely rude. She clearly hates her job and hates people. She didn’t tell me about the deposit when she gave me the total. When I questioned her why I was charged $75 more, she got mad at me and was very difficult. When we got to our to our room, it had a very weird smell, there was hair in the bathroom and the beds were awful. During the night we were awakened all night by a drip. Long story short, the drip was the ac and the weird smell was mold. The clerk this time was super accommodating and we changed rooms. No hair and no smell in the next room.

Good for one night

The check-in process was very quick, and the staff was very friendly. The lobby and breakfast areas appeared newly renovated and were very clean. The third floor has some wear and tear, but overall it looked fine. We booked for 4 guests, but we only received 3 towels. The deadbolt would not lock. The up bottons on the remote for sound and channels did not work. The beds were so soft that when I lie down, my feet were a good 2 inches higher than my head. It was very uncomfortable. The breakfast was very good and the staff was super friendly. However, there were no pancakes because they had no batter. For our purpose of staying one night on our way to Florida, this hotel was good. It is close to many restaurants and stores. The area seemed safe.

1st "STAY AWAY" This hotel is the worst we have stayed. Unclean, unclean unclean. Checkin wasnt ready for us to see the room. Fine came back at 3pm. Got into the room and crawling up the wall was a small spider we thought. But got close it was a ROACH. We checked to room out then here comes another one across the floor. Same time one crawls across the pillow while our neice is on the bed. We went to tell the manager. And her attitude was OHHH WELL it happens. Then she thought I was someone else. To have more attitude. When she realized I wasnt who she thought I was she didnt even apologize for her rudeness. Just said here is another room bring the key to the other room when your moved. Breakfast was very simple and non tasteful. Drinks are very watered down. The next room wouldn't get cooler and we already paid thru a third party whom we are working with on credit or refund. So dont waste your time its better to stay some where else. We will be posting the full video onnour YouTube and TikTok travel page KING AND QUEEN GETAWAYS!
