"Good rental. The only downside was that there was a strong cigar odor the first two days. I also found a few uncleaned hairs lying around on the counter and bed. Other than that, it’s a good home for a quick trip. Especially if you’re visiting for Fort Jackson purposes."

Top Columbia Hotel Reviews

Wyndham Garden Columbia/Ft. Jackson

8/10 Good

"We didn’t get an opportunity to use the amenities such as the pool or garden area. However the breakfast was good and filling."

Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Columbia, SC

8/10 Good

"Some people like the sink outside the bathroom, I prefer the sink inside the bathroom but I realize you can't please everyone. There are dispensers for shampoo etc but not all were there. I, being a woman bring my own hair products. It would be of great help to the elderly if they had a grab bar. The refrigerator does not have a freezer but they didn't advertise that. Only one plug in and usb port on lamp at bedside table but there are a lot of plug ins at the table area. I would have preferred a couple more hand towels and washcloths but I only stayed 2 nights. Low budget hotel means cutting cost which explains the carpet in hallways needs either cleaned or replaced. Bed was comfortable and clean and shower was clean."

Springhill Suites by Marriott Columbia near Fort Jackson

8/10 Good

"We had a great stay at this hotel. The room was spacious, clean, and very comfortable for our large family. The hotel itself was clean, well maintained, and had more modern, updated features than many other hotels we've stayed at. The staff was friendly and helpful, quickly providing extra linens when we requested them. The breakfast area was spacious, well stocked throughout the morning, and offered a nice variety of food choices. Overall, this hotel was a great fit for our family, and we would definitely stay here again."
