We were in Columbia to tour the University of South Carolina. We paid extra to get a room on non-ground level floor. We were first given a room on the ground floor and told it was fine. We tried to get in and the key didn't work. I then tried the key on a room across the hall and walked in on someone sleeping. They finally gave us a new key for a room upstairs. The sheets on both beds had stains on them. There was only one other car in the lot and no coffee in the morning.
Read the reviews before booking, and DO NOT BOOK. When we arrived the room door was wide open. There was a lock missing from the door, so it could not lock properly.
Less than 10 minutes after arriving we went to the front desk and told them we wanted a refund. We left and had to book a new hotel room elsewhere.
The manager would not honor any refund despite days of Hotels.com calling and us explaining the situation.
Do not book. It's not safe, dirty, and the doors did not lock.
Did not stay. Place nowhere near what is pictured on the website. In sketchy part of town. Hotel in disrepair. Room smelled like weed. Asked for a new room. Guy goes into new room, (seen on security camera), quickly mops the floor and sprays the room. Walk in new room, floor is wet, smells like cheap cologne. Mold in bathroom. Nope. Not staying. Felt very unsafe.
The pictures posted are deceiving, looks different. The shower didn’t even have a shower door and near the baseboards had holes. We got there looked at the room and decided not to stay.
the toilet overflowed so they told us no janitors worked that late and sent us to another room that smelled of 10 cans of btfota. bathroom lighting was great for pictures tho. cleanliness was not in the building. i’ve seen better at super 8
Dirty lobby, stinky room, no batteries for remotes, no free breakfast as advertised, shower head was held on with tape, no shower door or curtain, the elevator was scary at best and the hotel is in a bad part of town. I will never stay here again or ever recommend this place to anyone
Do not stay here. I went to check in not only is it in a horrible area but it looks like a big mobile home. The inside is dirty and smells. It’s also very noisy. Looks nothing like the picture. The staff told me I would get a full refund within 3-5 days. I did not and when I asked if I could have the persons name that checked us in and told me they don’t know. They could see that it was canceled so I’m sure they can see who canceled it. Says that a manager will call me. Save your money and troubles.
My family and I were extremely disappointed with our experience at the hotel. Despite its attractive appearance in photos and from the outside, we were taken aback by how dreadful it was once we arrived. The atmosphere was creepy and unsettling, making us feel uncomfortable and unwelcome. The façade of the hotel was deceiving, and we could not bring ourselves to stay there any longer. It was a complete disappointment and a definite warning to never judge a book by its cover. So we didn't stay i canceled the reservations and now im waiting on my refund.
