Property and all spaces are excellent. Close to many restaurants and shops. I guess I missed something but, my room didn't even have a clock or storage for clothing. hanging clothes are right in the living area. I survived but, I wouldn't do it again.

Excellent choice!

Excellent place to stay! The staff was friendly and helpful and the room was comfortable and clean. There were numerous restaurants and activities within walking distance as well as the lobby being a great entertainment hub with games, lounge areas, and a bar/restaurant. They also had a full free breakfast that was delicious and the breakfast staff was amazing! We will definitely stay here again when we come to Columbia.
