Pros: pretty hotel. Things were nice and a perfect location. I was excited to stay there.
Cons: My wife couldn't stay in our 5th floor room more than 5 minutes due to allergies. Mine bothered me a bit but she is more sensitive.
They moved us to another room on the 5th floor which was marginally better. We ended up having to leave the hotel. They were very nice and credited the room back.
If you have any allergies don't get room 510. Not sure if it used to be smoking or its moldy, etc.

Pros: Good location
Cons: 1 o'clock in the morning the transformer and all of the electricity went out and made everybody evacuate the building And her around 4 o'clock they decided to let everybody back in but the power was not going to be fixed . So we had to get all of our stuff with no power to see on the top 9 floor to get another hotel which they said they would accommodate but they have not yet done so so I had to pay for two hotels and no sleep because I had to be up the same day at 7 o'clock so the time I got to the new hotel at 5 o'clock it was pointless trying to sleep . Hoping they will refund my money for the trip and the hassle of everything .

Pros: Hillbilly feather pillows and comforter left down dander in the air of the room that kept my eyes red my entire stay. The room was noisy since it next to a night club that patrons talked loudly coming and going all night. Being close to the train tracks and hearing the train whistle all night didn't help either. Even though the staff removed the feather products it left the feather dander in the air, so I doubt I would stay there again.

Pros: This hotel had a good location near restaurants and felt clean. Breakfast was decent, offerings were as expected but attention to detail was apparent.
Cons: Location was beside the busy highway and windows were NOT insulated well. Clearly was fairly recently updated, but not exactly well done. Bathroom doors were sliders and had no sound proofing at all, providing absolutely no privacy.

Cons: Parking was not included in the price of your room. Valet was $22 a night, or you could park your own car for $16 a day in the parking garage. We got in at two in the morning, so this was kind of a problem, as I decided to park at the meter due to the expense. Breakfast is not included in the price of the hotel, although there are several restaurants around the hotel.

Pros: The place was only minutes from the heart of Columbia, and the one guy working was as friendly as he could be.
Cons: Where to begin... The place was a mess. they don't have a computer system, just paper cards to fill out for check in. The exterior was poor and made the place look abandoned, the room was cold and smelled like stale urine, as well as severely under decorated. The toilet seat didn't fit the toilet, the mounted this tiny, grainy television on the wall, I could hear every word the guy next door was saying (quietly), and the bed. The bed was hard as a rock with paper thin sheets! I can't make this up! Come morning, we found a creepy stain on the chair in the corner and knew we just had to get out of there. By the way, they had free breakfast in the morning. A pot of coffee and some Cheerios to be exact. I've paid $30/night for nicer facilities than this. I'll be using Air BnB next time!!
4.8 OK
Pros: The place has very friendly staff, and is reasonably clean. The room was also well cleaned the one day we were there to see it. The rooms are also nicely equipped with mini fridge and microwave. 50 cent sodas in the machine outside was nice, though.
Cons: When we arrived, there were a dozen police cars outside, so we left and came back an hour or so later. Turned out someone had tried to skip on their bill, and then tried to fight the first cop, so...anyway, not as big a deal as we thought at first, but not the first thing you want to see. Hotel needs a lot of work, and it shows. The picture on the TV looks more like old school antenna reception than cable. The toilet in our room was loud as hell when flushed, and seemed to take a while to refill. I asked for a smoking room, but did not get one, with no explanation, making us trek outside too often. We tried to request two wake up calls the first morning, but were told we could only get one. The "free breakfast" consisted of very small pastries, cereal, coffee, or "juice" (probably Sunny D). They only put out about half a dozen pastries, so they were gone in the time it took to smoke a cigarette and come back to an empty plate.
3.1 Mediocre
Pros: There was nothing good about it except the location.
Cons: There were bugs in the bathroom. The comforters had large holes in them. Beds were so hard, floor would have been better, except it looked like it has not been vacuumed for years. We asked for more towels the first night and never received them.
