We were very impressed with the room. The place was super clean. The breakfast was wonderful, with many different options. The only downside was the parking lot wasn’t very big, but they had a public parking lot just a block away so it wasn’t too bad. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Columbia.
