My family and I really enjoyed our stay. We didn’t have to hike our belongings to the hotel because the parking was so convenient. The decor was clean modern but still pretty inviting. The check-in process was easy and the representative at the desk was friendly and helpful. Our room was very clean and comfortable. The hotel is located in the heart of beautiful Columbia, so expect some city noise at night and in the early morning, trains and ambulances. Overall, our stay was excellent. I would stay here again and recommend it to a friend.

Our room, 405, was very nice. The one issue I had was light coming in from the pool area. I was able to use a clothes hanger to close the curtain as much as possible but thee was still light coming in. Also, on Saturday night thee was no one to cook meals, very disappointed.
