Helene Gidley

Quiet, clean room and hotelHaving an on site restaurant was convenient The all-disposable plates and fork/spoon/knife at the restaurant was weird- were they also using disposable pots and pans?? They must have some washing capabilities

The food was very good and ample The flatbread appetizer was excellentThe hotel staff very friendly and accommodatingWe stayed because of the Tesla superchargers located in their parking lot And would stay again due to the pleasant experience

Celeste Ferris

The hotel was very clean I was disappointed that the bar and kitchen were closed Also, there was a motorcycle club that kept my mother up past 1am

I honestly slept through it She stated how the partying kept her up and gave her a headache She informed the desk clerk and at checkout we were given late checkout with a discounted hotel rate We appreciated that!

I always like coming to stay here, the staff helpful and greet you with a smile The rooms are clean and comfortable The hotel bar has great selections, I miss social night and hope that will return

The pool is awesome wish they had a indoor pool as well William was very helpful and didn’t complain no matter how many times we needed him

Beatrice Hatcher

Room was not as expected and you had to pay for breakfast The lobby area is beautiful, but for the rest of the hotel, it could be a lot better considering how much you pay to stay there It was something that could have been cleaned, like the dresser, other than that it was okay

For me it’s minor things that the facility needs to address and they would be okay

John Washington

The room was very large with a living area and nice bedroom Some of the lighting in the living area and bathroom did not workThe remote control in the living area was missing a battery and did not work

They do have an on-site laundry, which is free, but you will have to purchase detergent and dryer sheets at the front desk

We stayed at this hotel this past weekend and the stay was great! Front desk staff was very friendly and helpful Honestly all of the staff that we encountered was very nice The hotel is in a good location close to a lot of food and retail stores

The room was large and decorated very well My husband loved, loved the king bed! We would definitely stay here again I’m giving 4 stars out of 5 because the room was a little dusty and could have been touched up before our check in But overall a really good stay!

naomi rosenberg

The staff was professional but very welcoming and accommodating It is a pet friendly facility, so I had my dog and there were no problems with this either The room was very clean and comfortable

Every member of the staff I met, including the front desk, breakfast area, and cleaning staff were friendly and asked if there was anything I needed All of the appliances worked well There was plenty of hand sanitizer throughout the hotel in high traffic areas Very nice individual soaps etc in addition to large wall mounted bottles of soaps and lotion were of good quality and very welcome The location was close to family which is the other reason we chose this hotel It was the nicest Hampton Inn I have stayed in over my many years of experience

B Love

Location was good For this hotel to be a few yrs old in this new location, I guess I expected more for what I paid, but you get what you pay for as the saying goes and what I paid was still much in my eyes Anyway I reserved the King Rm with Sofa Bed sue to sleep issues

Thought I’d be able to elevate my feet and just sleep upright on the couch, but apparently that’s not the case The couch looks and felt very old, dingy, and used The desk chair is not comfortable at all One of the pillows had yellow stains on the pillow case The floor or carpet still had dried food droppings on it and the shower had brown straight hair in it and on the shower wall as if housekeeping took the same rag from wherever and just dragged it across the shower wallor maybe not cleaned it all 🤔 mines is black and coarse I brought my own cleaning supplies & wipes like I usually do Just think 🤔 a little attention to detail can go along way & some much needed maintenance from the furniture to the walls The walls in the room look like someone tried to paint over paint mistakes or just simply gave up trying to paint period I may try the location at Lexington if I do stay at the Hampton Inn again

Stephani Tam

We stayed here for just one night It was a great stop to break up a long road trip The staff was soooo friendly

Our room was spotless Breakfast was great The nice lady at the front desk made it a point to converse with my children upon check in She was very friendly They were so great that we booked them again for our trip back home

Mitchell Teeters

First let me say that the staff was excellent Friendly and helpful and sincereNow the dings

Floor of handicap room (entire room) felt like you were sticking to it Kind of funny until later You could see a haze on the floor in the reflection Not a big deal initially, INITIALLY We got in late so we just wanted to go to bed, then up early Not by choice The sun shade was broken and guess what, we are facing East, yay!So up we go Last night I was excited to have a decent shower stall (I’ve had a stroke impacting my entire right side)!I went to use the shower and nope The plastic slider and spray nozzle weren’t working I got it back together and when I turned on the water the base was spraying almost as much as the sprayer This was where it got sporty Remember the haze on the floor? Yep, I had to get the wife to help me out The bathroom turned into a skating rink No shower today I guess I’ll was my hair in the sink Wife could use it but I can’t Also the lights near the bed flicker, kind of makes me think of the Artemis hotelI went to breakfast which was very nice Clean and friendly!I never felt that the staff did not appreciate the issue The manager was extremely nice, and she could empathize having had to family members that had had strokes as well I believe truly that they’re going to take care of the issues, let’s hope they do! I am optimistically will

Jaimie Small

Great staff and experience! I worked with Tracey to plan a last minute wedding rehearsal in the meeting space She made sure to consistently communicate with me and my family regarding our needs to ensure the setup was correct She was there when we arrived to begin setup and followed up after the event

I look forward to working with this location again!

Adriana Urtubey

Everything was great but I am mainly writing this review for Shay, the very helpful and friendly lady at the front desk She has been absolutely wonderful Efficient, kind, and diplomatic

In my two day stay at the hotel, I could definitely tell she works hard and aims to please Customer service skills at its best I travel quite a bit and I rarely write reviews but this one was certainly warranted

Mindy Stephenson

We were recently guests and 5 stars isn’t enough

We arrived well after 10pm after driving all the way from Columbus Ohio and not stopping and the front desk made sure we had something to eat when we got there and the staff here is OUTSTANDING! They were so kind and offered the best service I’ve ever had from a hotel Room was fabulous and I can’t stay enough about this place!! Worth the money Every penny! They even let us park the 26 ft U haul right in front of the hotel because I was worried someone breaking in the truck Hope to be able to stay here again!

Valerie Lloyd Golson

I surprised my husband for his birthday with an overnight stay at “The Trundle Hotel” and it was exceptional in every way Upon entering the Hotel you are greeted by “Shay” not a ray of sunshine; but the sun itself! What ever other assistance is needed; your friendly all a round “Mr Fix it” John, is there to help you too

These two young people are truly “assets” to the establishment We also had the pleasure of meeting the Owners and found them to treat every guest with respect and wanting to make sure your stay is everything you want it to be Don’t be fooled by the exterior, the enterior decor is so warm and inviting No two rooms are alike Please come inyou will not be disappointed! We cannot wait to make our next reservation

Whitney Ince

My favorite Hilton Hotel as a business traveler This hotel is older but has been well cared for and updated The rooms are spacious with very comfortable beds and nice furniture

The staff is always very accommodating and the parking is the best for a downtown urban hotel as it’s a secure garage attached to the lobby so if it’s raining you won’t get wetIt’s less then a 5 minute walk from parking garage to your roomRuth Chris is lobby is good and hotel is less then one block from many other restaurants

Gloria Gaillard

Our stay was enjoyable! The room was clean, and the staff was polite and friendly Dinner at the restaurant downstairs (Ruth Chris) was great The only reason for not giving a 5 star rating was because the mattress slips on the beds wooden platform and the pillows could be more comfortable

Otherwise a great hotel, very clean, very nice!

Alan G

I said Hilton hotels All the time but usually lower end ones like Hampton inn when I’m traveling or going to see friends This Hilton Columbia center was fantastic Very clean very nice rooms and great amenities

But most importantly the front desk the people there were great the service was so good The person who helped check me in the first day saw me on the third day when I was leaving and remembered me and mentioned that I was able to get free breakfast since I was a diamond member Just the fact that she remembered me I thought was very surprising That’s what I call great service

Great location, has restaurants within walking distance, Not bad at all Pool was small but not crowded, Room was clean and bed was comfy Breakfast was good they have waffle maker, cereal, juice, coffee, eggs and cheese and depending on the day they have either bacon, sausage, ham etc

lady that was serving the food was really nice and refilled the bread tray after I got my eggs and sausage, when i asked where the butter was she walked over and got it for me instead of just pointing to it She didint have to do that at all, but I did appreciate it and made sure everyone in my party left her a tip

Jj Money

Cost just as much as a Marriott when the rooms are outdated Very disappointed when I got to my room Total came out to be $144! That’s what I pay for a upscale hotel

The room looks old but at least it was clean… google advertises them having a bar also, this hotel doesn’t have a bar Spend your money on something actually worth $144

Jam Jam

Over all it was clean and pleasant but the breakfast is not worth the hassle personally i felt the pool was a bit small and definitely needed a good cleaning but the outside patio area around the pool was very nice and modern But the restaurants around this hotel are terrible i dont recommend eating at any of them except arbys cause every where else was super slow wait times or out of just about anything you woule ask for its almost as if no one wanted to do their jobs but for this location particularly i guess its go figure so id return but only if need be

Edward Hardee

I hope this stay improves So far customer service is very rude I’m assuming that Fairfield is better than this

This does not want me to come backThe rooms are clean enough Hallways are good It’s just the customer service But that’s the first impression When you walk into the door you expect to be greeted and pleasant atmosphere You expect the employee to be helpful I’m not sure if they’re having a bad day but this is not good

myron wright

An odd stop It was late I we were in need of a pet friendly place First room had a broken bed

then the next room wasn’t made up So they had to make the room up quickly at like 11 pm The weirdest thing was some of the housekeeping staff lived right across the hall on the 4th floor The lady who fixed up our room was over the top great I wish I could remember her name First breakfast ever that had whole jimmy dean sandwiches in a warmer

Paul Sommers

A poor experience all the way around! Was not greeted on arrival by the front desk Not told any information about the hotel, where the elevators were, what time breakfast was etc I travel for work and stay at Fairfield Inn properties regularly

This one misses the mark by a mile The hotel is in desperate need of updating, but that doesn’t even account for the lack of customer service from the staff We came down at 7:00 to eat and get on the road and were told that a hot breakfast would be ready at 7:30 by a woman at the front desk No problem, I can wait for a little So I went and fueled up and loaded up to leave, came back at 7:30, still no breakfast Was at that time informed by someone else that the hot breakfast was a to-go sack! A little bit of explaining when I checked in, or from the other front desk worker would have gone a long way to ease my immediate frustration as I was traveling with my family and had 6 other mouths besides mine to feed! If you are not going to serve a hot breakfast, that’s fine, just let me know when I check in so I am prepared! The gentleman at the front desk then proceeded to tell me that a to-go breakfast was Fairfield Inn policy and it was because of Covid So I guess I haven’t been eating the usual hotel breakfast that I have been enjoying every other week when I stay at other Fairfield Inns? I wish I was joking but blaming Covid was the icing on the cake for me 🙂 In short, I should have listened to the reviews, they are accurate This is not the usual Fairfield Inn experience that I am used to and would not consider staying here again

Lauren

The hotel is being remodeled and we were able to stay in one of the newly remodeled rooms It was nice however there was construction debris all over We found washers, nails and drywall dusting throughout the room

When we got there it didn’t have a fridge, we asked for one and recieved it right away The front desk staff was friendly and helpful They told us our room had been released just a day before we stayed The hotel is great, I would just say make sure the rooms are gone through and cleaned from construction before allowing people to stay in them There was also no ice machine or vending machine on our floor The location is great we walked outside om Saturday and were pleasantly surprised the have a huge farmers market right outside Overall I would recommend and stay again

Sandy Sisson

The noise level in this hotel is why I am giving it a 3 star review Between the train, the road traffic, the building construction and the fact that the walls are seriously paper thin it is one of the noisiest hotels I have stayed in The hotel knows this and provides some of the rooms with noise machines

Bring ear plugs and run the fan on the air condition and that will helpThe staff here are so incredibly friendly Love that they serve warm cookies too Every staff member would talk to you! They all made you feel so welcome! Location is great and that’s why I stay here I ask for a room that faces away from the train and stay higher up!Pool is nice and I love the adjacent lounge area with the fireplace

Judy Horton

Hotel easy to get to in Columbia Paid parking is next door The parking voucher didn’t work when I exited so had to pay after all

Rooms are older and haven’t been refurbished in some time and show signs of wear However, the rooms are very cleanThe staff was extremely nice and helpful in every capacity The restaurant serves a wonderful breakfastMeting room was nice, clean and the food and beverage service was on time and delicious

I have never stayed at a hotel with such super friendly staff! We checked in, in the middle of the night Shandreal got us right into our room, and couldn’t have been any nicer! We loved her hospitality!! ❤️ Their breakfast was very good, with a great variety of foods Our room was clean, and the beds were comfortable

The weight room had plenty of updated equipment, and the outdoor pool was clean If we’re ever in the area again, we will definitely stay here! 😊👍💕

karen burnette

Excellent nighttime desk clerk, Kim, who could not have been better She was alone on duty and did an excellent job of checking in guests, answering guests’ questions, and answering the phone She did all of this and was a delight to deal with

Public area very nicely done Very good breakfast offerings and service to keep it all well stocked On the flip side, the room cleanliness was abysmal in some areas The carpet was grungy, our feet stuck to the floor in the bathroom and turned our socks black with dirt The worse was the desk chair: Cloth and stained beyond belief We wanted it out of the room Very difficult to make adjustments to the thermostat and could not stop the fan from running The beds were very acceptable in their cleanliness, however The floor and desk chair filth assures us we will never return to this location

Michelle Worley

Stayed here for a business trip! Ms Kim at the front desk made me feel super welcome! She makes some yummy cookies! Also, the lady working breakfast this morning (I didn’t catch her name) went out of her way to check the weather for me! Excellent customer service! Room was also very clean!! I wish I received this level of customer service everywhere I traveled!!

My overall stay here was nothing short of amazing The staff is phenomenal especially Tiffany!! She went above & beyond for us Always helpful and giving great shopping & dining tips

Although we had some issues with cleanliness & repair management was always on top of whatever issue we may have had Special thank you to Meka (house services) for being so kind whenever we needed anything! If you’re looking for a spacious room here is your place We enjoyed our two bedroom suite w/two bathrooms & full kitchen Breakfast was nice as well as the M-W social hour! Wasn’t happy the pool was operational but it had some repairs in place Be careful going out the traffic is heavy and is in need of a stop light Our beds slept great, complimentary Dove body wash& shampoo products were a plus Thank you Staybridge for an awesome ladies trip this week😊

Nancy Scraggs

From reception to culinary to housekeeping to maintenance; this is one of the nicest most accommodating hotels I have stayed in!!! We had an extended stay there for my job and were made to feel like family It was clean, well maintained, and the staff are phenomenal The food was very good and had a nice variety

Will definitely stay there again if my assignment takes me back!!

A reservation does not guarantee a room! Confirm your reservation Multiple times!My wife and I were thrilled when we found a two bedroom suite that would accommodate us, our two year old toddler, and our dog We accepted the elevated price, acknowledging the elevated price to ensure a comfortable and restful night’s sleep for all

It was quite a shock and disappointment for us to discover the day of our arrival that our reservation had been altered our reservation to two separate, non-adjoined rooms, all without any attempt to contact us to alert us of the changeSince we arrived late in the evening, we were unable to speak to a manager until the next day (Friday) in an attempt to resolve the issue Upon doing so, we were offered a partial refund on the room However, when we were contacted towards the end of the day we were informed that the refund would be a small fraction of what was originally offered and, to receive the full amount, we would need to contact the site we booked through After doing so, the booking site informed us that the hotel would not approve the refund and our attempt to contact the hotel directly has resulted in no responseWhile it can be expected that unforeseen circumstances will arise which require both business and customer to adjust, the failure to communicate these changes and the blatant refusal to follow through with the offered partial refund is absolutely unacceptableOn top of this, the indoor pool on premises, which our daughter was very excited about, had an Out of Order sign up all weekend Even when we were assured by the front desk that we were allowed to go in, the pool was so heavily chlorinated that it was uncomfortable to stay for more than 15 minutesThe saving graces for all of this, and the only reasons why this receives a two star review, is that the rooms themselves were very well kept and the beds were comfortableI will not be doing business with this company again in the future based on these interactions

I’ve stayed here several times while in town on business The staff is always friendly and competent The beds are soft and comfortable

However, the beds are king sized, even when some of the rooms are really too small to accommodate a bed that size In a couple of rooms, the bed was so large that I couldn’t pull the desk chair outThe refurbished building is beautiful, the basement Starbucks is convenient, and the rooftop bar is a very cool experience But the building shows it’s age in some of the fixtures

Outstanding historic building formerly a bank Lobby has the original bank vault which leads to a cozy bar Beautiful corner suite with views of downtown

Room was very clean, staff were friendly and ready to make recommendations for the area Hotel has an amazing I got rooftop bar with amazing city views Tons of great restaurants all within walking distance, very clean and safe downtown area If you manage to travel on the weekend they have a street market every Saturday every week of the year with lots of art vendors, food truck, fresh flowers and musicians There is valet parking that cost $24 a night plus tips No restaurant on premises, loved our stay and definitely will stay again!

I loved the architecture of the building It really has an old school vibe Location is awesome

My only issue is parking They do offer valet Amazing view from the rooftop bar but no food There are tons of options within walking distance The Starbucks below it is the coolest I have seen Kind of has a speakeasy vibe The elevator will take you straight to it It’s unique and for that I say it’s worth a stay I will be back

Friendly staff 5/5Now let’s get to the roomBed super soft my boyfriend and I both where out like lights We did have a King sweet and im pretty sure we stayed in room 310

It was clean, probably one of the nicer BW we have stayed in in quit some timeBathroom I really wanna give a 45 shower was AMAZING, it has perfect water pressure and they know ya boy likes it HOT The only downfall of the bathroom was the toilet It was connected to anything so when you sat on it, it moved a lotThe nature of our stay was just one night decided not to drive home through all the storms and found this place for a great price I would honestly stay here again and hope the toilet was better secured

Deborah Crawford

When checking in I told the lady at the desk that my husband smokes and where were the designated areas She told me where I initialed the parts where it says smoking in room is $250 charge

My husband smoked outside but when we left they added $250 to my charge card They said they can prove he smoked in the room I asked the how, The answer was they do this all the time and they charge when people smoke inside I asked about the dope smoke smell in the hall and she says they charged everyone that smokes So I guess because I stated up front there would be a smoker in the room and the halls reeked of smoke when we arrived I was on the list So just to forewarn if you smell the dope smoke on your way in just know you will be charged whether you smoke or not If your clothes smell then be prepared to have a charge whether you smoke in the room or use their smoking area I am a non-smoker and I did not smell anything in our room at anytimeso just saying

Room is okay Service at front desk was fairly good but the General Service is one star because I stayed in the rooms for a week without Room Service

not even to come by and take out the trash out Not surprise though, it typical of the hotel, they belief the community they provide service to should clean up after themselves or they will report them to their superiorHoo-ha Btw, this is not the 1st, 2nd or 3rd time this will happen across the State ( Note: I’m not generalising, but just saying it’s because of their location and the community they provide service to)

Marz Masters

I loved this hotel from check-in, breakfast to check out The amenities are kept in excellent condition Some amenities standard to this hotel typically include washer/ dryer, gym, outdoor grill, basketball court

The staff were all pleasant and welcoming With COVID-19 on another rise, I absolutely appreciated the way the hotel kept track of spaces that needed sanitized The breakfast tables had signs if they still needed cleaning between use, the elevator was mopped and cleaned at intervals and teamwork was evident The staff wore their mask and offered help to their peers in other areas

William Foster

Our stay at the Fort Jackson IHG was tremendous Our experience was just as positive as it was in previous visits there The folks there are very gracious and attentive, from the breakfast attendants to the front desk

The room was nice and clean We did not notice any noise or inability to sleep due to loudness, the room was very quiet Our room was cleaned in a timely manner and they left extra towels like we requestedIt was a relief to have a nice breakfast each morning for the family I was just really impressed with our stay and can’t say enough When I read reviews I am always concerned with the environment and cleanliness, which for us at this hotel was great!Thanks again IHG Fort Jackson staff!

My husband and I stayed a night here for the Elton John concert I was very impressed Felt like a newer building and had multiple entries that only opened with a room key so it felt safe

The staff were all very friendly and helpful The entire building felt clean and welcoming Our room was small but based on the photos I knew that going in The bed was comfortable and clean, the bathroom was clean and organized with towels set up and easy to get to I loved the dispensers for the soaps and shampoos The shower was beautiful and everything just felt nice The breakfast was so much better than expected You had your basics of yogurt, an apple, bagels and cereal, but they also had oatmeal, eggs, sausage, pancakes and English muffins Would absolutely come here again Easy check in and even easier check out Well lit parking lot and felt like a safe area over all Thank you so much!

William Andrew Sheppard

This is the second Tru in which I have stayed Much like the other Tru, it is decorated in a modern minimalist style Rooms are very small but clean and with comfortable beds

The lobby has a billiards table and an array of little nooks for reading or doing work Staff was very friendly and the hotel is located near the zoo and Saluda Riverwalk Only reason it is not 5 stars is the room size This is Columbia, SC, not Manhattan, there is no reason a modern hotel room should be this small
