This was my first travel assignment with my job and I must say being away from home is already stressful when you are somewhere by yourself and you are not familiar wuth the area, but staying at this hotel didn't make my stay in Columbia any better. I must admit they had breakfast prepared for me every morning and it... More

I recently spent a little time at this hotel while on business in Columbia. I did see a sign that stated renovations in progress. Never saw a bit of this but will tell you that this hotel is very dated and renovations are very much needed. While the price is reasonable I would advise that you wait until after the... More

We recently spent 2 nights at this hotel while visiting family. I noticed signs in the hotel stating that renovations would begin on January 16, 2012. We checked out that morning, so I can't say I saw any construction activity, but that seems imminent. Hotel is in need of renovations, but it seems to have good bones. More

Every employee was especially friendly and helpful. I joked with the head of housekeeping after she got our room ready early that I could make s'mores in our fireplace. The next day, she left a lovely gift bag packed with chocolate and marshmallows and a hand-written card. Everytime I saw her, which was often, she made sure that everything in... More

I think it was my mistake to choose this hotel at the first place, I should have backed off after seeing the response at the helpdesk as it never looked Marriott at the first place. I did not know any other place so I had to stay. There was wrong in everything about the hotel. I Would never recommend anyone... More

We never heard them so the acoustics were great and the pet owners were careful about taking the dogs away from the hotel to do their business. Coffee in the lobby was great. Missed the complimentary free breakfast but hubby... More

Well, pretty poor all the way through. Dog barking. Dog smell everywhere on first floor where we were. Pee smell in our first room drove us to a replacement room. No smell in the new one. We ventured out to DC and a wedding and came back to settle in for the night. Air Conditioner broke!! Went to front desk... More

First, let me start off by saying that I live near an elevated subway line as well as jfk airport. I am no stranger to sleeping through noise. That being said, I booked this hotel online for 3nites since it was pet friendly and my dog would be coming with us. Online, it said there would be a $100 pet... More

i transferred to this hotel after booking at the springhill suites in columbia. Springhill was new and had great service but didn't have a kitchen as I had booked through a corporate website. Therefore I moved to the residence Inn after I was told that there only a $10/night room difference and that the hotel had been renovated in 2005.... More
