Great stay!

This was first visit to Columbia for my daughter's music camp. And this hotel was a great choice for us. It is right next to USC (the camp venue), walking distance to the downtown area, and safe to take a walk even after dinner. My wife and I enjoyed the walking around the campus during our stays. We will definitely come back to this hotel for our next visit to Columbia.
