Sleep Inn Columbia
OK if a solo traveling night, because its easy access, clean, and decent price compared with city references. Very bad in terms of furniture (old and dirty), at least walls were clean and recently painted. Toilet slide-door useless.

La Quinta Inn by Wyndham Columbia SE / Fort Jackson
Everything was excellent apart from the WIFI that never worked. I will definitely stay there again if the WIFI is fixed.

Wyndham Garden Columbia/Ft. Jackson
Breakfast menu was fresh! We didn’t get any pillows for the pull out and staff said they were “out” of pillows. The pool wasn’t cleaned and ready to use until after 2pm (on a 90 degree day). Otherwise everything was as promised.

Courtyard by Marriott Columbia Downtown at USC
Terrible noise from street. Bikes. Trucks. Loud muscle cars.... ALL NIGHT LONG. They have noise machines in rooms but they don't help much. People next door were college kids - had to call security at 3am. Told staff. They don't care. "Oh, sorry about that." - was all they said. Don't stay ...
