"The property is beautiful and historic with so much character!! The rooms were nice and clean, and the staff were all very kind. "

"Staff was not quite as friendly as my others, starting right after you opened. Front desk, bartender. Hope they have plenty of support and appreciation. "

"WE CHECKED IN WITH 5 PEOPLE, THEY DID NOT HAVE ENOUGHT BLANKETS. THEY SAID HEY WERE OUT. NONE OF TGHE PRODUCTS IN BATHROOM SHOWER HAD ANY PRODUCT IN THE. NO TOWELS. NO CUPS, NO COFFEE/ THEY DID NOT EVEN HAVE EN OUGHT PILLOWS. THEY SAID IT WAS BECAUSE OF THE MASTERS GOING ON AT THE SAME TIME. ALSO 5:30AM THE FIRE ALARMA WENT OFF. WE CALLED THE FRONT DESK, THEY SAID FALSE ALARM. IT WAS NOT A FALSE ALARM. CONFERENCE ROOM A WENT ON FIRE. WE HAD TO EVACUATE TO OUTSIDE THE BUILDING, THE HALLWAYS AND ROOM WAS FILLED WITH SMOKE. THANK GOD WE LEFT THE ROOM, AND DID NOT LISTEN TO RECEPTIONIST. WE HAD NOT SUPPLIES. WE DID NOT GET ENOUGHT COFFEE, OR CUPS/STIRRERS, NOTHING. THEY SAID THEY WERE ALL OUT. AND WHEN YOU ENTER THE LOBBY, THERE IS A SHELF FREE TO GUEST TO GRAB A WATER. WE WENT TO GRAB A BOTTLE EACH. AFTER OUR DRIVE WE WERE THIRSTY. I WAS TOLD "NO" ONE PER FAMILY. 1 BOTTLE OF WATER! "

"We were in Columbia overnight for a graduation at Fort Jackson. The hotel was in a great spot-close to great food, bars, and the capital. Staff were exceptional. The in-hotel bar was lovely. Room was super clean and very comfortable. Wish we could have stayed longer. Will definitely stay again if we are ever back in town."

"Lobby is the key feature...a few too many abandoned businesses on the street detract. Basic room was a bit plain. Chicken and biscuits delicious for breakfast but they were 20 minutes late the day we needed to depart."

"Great breakfast."

"The rooms were comfortable and spacious. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We would absolutely stay again."

"Great accommodations. Easy welcoming check in"

"Pros and cons. The property is very clean and physically comfortable. The breakfast is very nice. Be advised that this property is NOT in downtown Columbia, or in walking distance to it. Additionally, I specifically picked this place because it had a pool. The pool was closed due to an inspection issue. Not the hotel’s fault, but on the last day we were there it “reopened “ but we had to get the staff to actually unlock the door, and then the pool was too cold to swim in. Another issue was the housekeeping. You don’t get housekeeping every day, which is fine, but they also didn’t come on the day they were supposed to. I had to go to the front desk to get to, towels, etc. Finally, even though they have a huge parking lot that’s only half filled they charge you $10.80 a night to park there. Again, this is not a hotel located in downtown where parking is in short supply. When I asked at checkout if they would waive the parking fee, given that there was no pool or housekeeping, the answer was no. I think staff apathy and bad attitudes are the problem with this property."
