The bathroom hadn't been cleaned. There was hair all over and a half used bar of soap still in the shower. There was liquid soap on the walls. The sink didn't drain. The floors in the room were sticky. And the whole building smelled like smoke.

Our stay at Comfort Inn & Suites Ft. Jackson Maingate was made truly exceptional thanks to Michelle at the front desk. From the moment we arrived, Michelle went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect for us. She provided incredibly helpful information regarding the Army Graduation at Fort Jackson, which made navigating the event so much easier and far less stressful. She also took extra care to make sure our room was up to par, confirmed that we had enough towels, and ensured we were placed in a room with the handicap-accessible bathroom we needed. Michelle’s kindness, professionalism, and attention to detail genuinely made our stay better. It is rare to encounter someone who is so attentive and truly invested in guest comfort. Thank you so much, Michelle, for going above and beyond to make sure we had the best stay possible. We are very grateful.

The location was misleading from the army base. I drove all night was tired from nyc to SC And ask the front desk if i could check in early at 12:15. I had a regular conversation no yelling and was grateful she said come back at 130. the last thing i ask her was will you be here at 130 or would she be at the desk. she said yes i then went and go sleep in my car to get woken up by SCPD as trespassing and my reservation has been revoke the young lady felt threatened that i ask would she be there. you can play back the videos and audio sending the cops on me and who knows how this could have been handled if the police officers was having a bad day. i went on the company reviews and it seems that establishment has more bad reviews than good. i had to book back 2 more hotels rooms at another location
