The location is perfect as it’s near Sumter Square and within walking distance of restaurants. Rooms were big and they had an awesome walk-in shower. Kuerig in room which we used on New Year’s Day as nothing was open early, no coffee ready in lobby either. The day before it wasn’t ready so hubby waited and he said it looked terrible so we drove to Starbucks for our fix. Pool didn’t look very clear so we skipped that. Amenities could have been better for the price.
