The property is excellent. The only complaint I have is not being made aware of the motel/ hotel next door to them. Our room view we seen the prostitution going on etc. But the actual hotel is close to everything. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. We enjoyed our stay over all.

A little above average
Room was clean and well stocked. On site bar and restaurant were handy and plenty of nearby options as well.
Bed was comfortable and updated USB style outlets gave plenty of places to charge our accessories
Getting to the Columbia Airport early in the morning was simple.

Customer service was excellent. The agents at the hotel were very knowledgeable and friendly. My room was exceptionally clean and the view from the 5th floor window was gorgeous. The dining area was clean and the food was great. All in all, one of the best stays in the last 5 years.

If I could give this location 20stars I would. The place was well kept and the staff was sooo attentive. I did not encounter any issues except I wanted more tea in the room 😋 (they gave me more) Great job to the staff and the management team.

I very much appreciate that when i arrived several hours earlier than the official check-in time, the desk manager accomodated me and got me into a room early.
As someone who travel alot, i also appreciate the level of cleanliness of the hotel room, imparticular, the bathroom.
