We had a great stay here except early in the morning all I heard was cleaning staff yelling down the hall and doors being slammed. Pointless to have a late checkout when you can’t sleep in because of the inconsiderate cleaning staff.

Everything was great, except noise from other guests in rooms close to ours……and from the street, which I realize is hard to do anything about. Breakfast was fantastic! Different options each morning and really tasty! Convenient to everything in the vista and most things downtown.

Hotel was fine. Parking lot is not large enough although they had overflow parking in a garage around the corner. You had to ask for a ticket to avoid paying the garage fee though. Biggest disappointment (again) was the breakfast. Poor variety (just had basics) and workers did not top anything off, they would wait until food or plates or silverware or drinks would run out before refilling them. Workers would stay in back for long periods of time and not be aware that anything needed to be refilled. We chose to buy breakfast elsewhere after the first day instead of eating their free breakfast.

Loved how close it was to The Senate concert venue. Downtown Columbia is such a beautiful and unique area, and the hotel didnt feel intrusive on this historic nature of the area. Super friendly staff, great breakfast, incredible view. The only issue we ran into was the super squeaky bathroom door, but that was quite literally the only problem. Clean, well maintained, and affordable.
