No breaky?

Wish I had known there was no breakfast offered of any sort, though they did say they could make me a cup of tea or coffee, otherwise it was closed. When I booked, I specifically chose because of the token breakfast offering

Nice reasonable priced hotel

The room was comfortable. The microwave and regrigerator worked and the bathroom was fine too. Plenty of electrical outlets to charge phone and use my CPAP machine. Breakfast room was under construction, but the manager did make coffee so I could take some coffee for my road trip. There was no hair dryer, but called the front desk and they brought me one. They were very accomodating.

Good value for a one night stay. Rooms are dimly lit, but there's plenty of lamps, so it's not a major problem. Tub was kind of gross. People just hung out in their cars or in the parking lot.

Travellers beware!

The saying is:"You get , what you pay for". Not in this case. You get much less.! There was no breakfast and the "reception" is literally a hole in the external wall. A little window with a plastic divider to register . When asked about the breakfast and the way the reception is situated, I was told, that this is done because of the "covid" situation. In my view it is a false advertising on the Hotels site. This was the first time we experienced this. My recommendation for the future travellers is to avoid booking this hotel. There are many other hotels availabe for the same cost of one night stay in this area that have all, that is advertised.

Older But Comfortable

It didn't look like much from the road, the property is older, but the rooms were updated, clean and comfortable. Not fancy, but quiet, and a good stay in the Columbia area.

So-so

Older building, but in ok shape. You could see the sun & feel the wind from the spaces around the door. Must check in from outside at a little window. Gave us a key that didn’t work so had to go after another one. No breakfast of any type even though the description says there is. You get what you paid for.

A Place to Sleep.

The place was great for what I needed. A place to sleep that was very cost efficient. The place was quiet, clean, Wifi worked great in the room and it is close to the highway. No one hanging around or making noise. Parking lot was sufficiently light without excess light bleeding into the room. Check in was efficient and pleasant. The only down side, No coffee. However the are two donut shops within a mile. Except for the lack of coffee, probability the best, "cost efficient" place to sleep I have encountered in the Columbia area.
