At 4 am to 8 am in morning the room phone started ringing Constantly. It was very Disturbing. I couldn't get any sleep, so I got up and leave. I call the front desk several times and each time they told me that the calls was not coming from the Front desk. And because this was something that happened at their hotel. And you pay for the Comfort they didn't suggest anything.

Special thanks to Keshia and Latonia!! They are true gems and made sure we had clean towels, sheets and toiletries. We spent several days whilst my son’s apartment was getting ready. Santana at the front desk was also kind and very helpful. Definitely will be my go to place when I’m back.

Columbia stop .
Hotel was clean. However, do not get a room with an even number as they face the main road. The noise from the cars all night long was ridiculous; and we even had a white noise machine. There was a hole in the ceiling of the shower. At check out, I wanted to address the issues but no one was at the front desk and I had to get on the road home.

Friendly and clean
Very, VERY friendly front desk! They get top ratings. They were helpful in every way! Our ceiling leaked in our first room and they promptly put us in another room. That room had water damage ( in the bathroom there was a hole in the ceiling) as well but it was so so clean otherwise. The price was right and it was a 5 minute drive from USC.

The front desk service was terrible the day we checked in- there was one person at the front desk and she kept disappearing for long periods of time, so it took forever for us to check in (our 5 year old was with us). When we finally got up to the desk she then took a phone call and was on the phone for quite a long time while we waited. When we got in the room the TV would not work properly and the front desk employee said she would come up to look at it and she never did. When we went out for dinner and saw her on the way out I mentioned my daughter had to just watch her tablet and she said "oh that's good" since the TV did not work. Then when we got home a woman was standing in the lobby telling her friend that she had been waiting 20 minutes just to get another pillow. Terrible staff at the front desk the night we checked in.
