Love the property, this is my first and last visit. No coffee in the room means no Randy returning. I'm a Diamond Hilton member, so I stay in hotels weekly. Love the place but coffee is a deal killer for us old road warriors. I understand the New target market doesn't care. Unfortunately for you. I do care. When your committee of youngsters finally figures it out ,let me know. I'll reconsider

Hi, I would have given a 5 rating but the valet parking needs a lot of work, I missed part of a show because of this issue. Yes, I will probably stay there when I come back to Columbia Sc

Vampire Room

The service was great, the location is great. Our room I believe was called the 'vampire room'. There were no windows making it difficult to wake up and the bathroom was very close to the bed so if you with a partner, it is slightly uncomfortable...

The only complaints I have is that the phone inthe room (Rm.1112) did not have a functioning telephone ro reach the help desk, as upon dialing, encountered a busy signal continuously on each attempt. Secondly, I was not am to access the Netflix or other speciality programs on the room television. Finally, upon recieving an email receipt prior to check out, I noticed I was billed three seperate valet parking fees ($30.00 eqch), when in fact I never utilized valet services. The bill was corrected upon me advising the hotel staff at the front lobby desk. Aside from this, the stay was pleasant.
