Very clean and well decorated lobby. They also had surprise wine and beer evening with soup and salad. This was very nice. Room well set up and very comfortable. Nicely done breakfast and coffee area, plenty of room to accommodate lots of guest without feeling crowded. Only complaint is the $12 parking fee, that should be part of the hotel nightly cost. Overall would recommend and I would stay there again.

From the minute we walked in every thing was great. From the people that checked us in, the room was nice and clean. There was a manager’s social in the evening with drinks and snacks and then the breakfast. When we were leaving I told my wife that this is the nicest hotel we’ve stayed in, in years. There’s a little game area, bar and convenient to everywhere we had to go. We said we’ll be planning more trips to Columbia and be staying here. Thank you for a great experience

The extra in door space in the lobby and outback was really nice. The heaters outside were excellent to sit during the evening w lots of space and was gated. Beds were not comfortable and getting hot water during a shower was limited. Wings at their bar were excellent and had lots of menu options. Nice bar area as well. My husband walked across the street to Publix’s and multiple homeless approached him.
