The sheets were rough and itchy. First time I've ever experienced that at a hotel. There was no lotion in the room. It seemed like a very bare bones place. Breakfast is not free, nor is there any service. The only option is to order off a board that is Starbucks. We will not stay there again.

Service was great! Very friendly staff all the way around. Unfortunately the noise outside on work being done on the street was very loud and kept us awake. The walls are paper thin between rooms so that didn't help either. We may have had bad luck with placement of our room, but everything else was fine. Great location for the college tour.

I was very impressed with all of the employees; Ms Minnie at the desk, Latia in the kitchen. Could not ask for more personable, helpful and friendly people to represent Marriott!

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.
