“While its downtown Columbia location is convenient, reports of inconsistent service and maintenance issues give me pause. Based on what I've gathered, potential guests should anticipate possible hiccups during their stay. Though some staff receive praise, recurring concerns about room conditions and front desk responsiveness suggest a need for improved management oversight.”
