Bonne étape de 2 nuits
Pros:

Hotel calme et équipé correctement à Columbia.
Il est situé dans une zone commerciale avec des nombreux magasins et restaurants, mais à l'écart.
Ma chambre était bien équipée et de bonne taille.
Micro onde, café etc...
Bref pour mes 2 nuits sur place c'était un bon rapport qualité prix

Pros:

Location

Cons:

Room smelled like cat piss,, sheets were clean but stained. Room ac was turned off and took awhile to cool to an acceptable level. The pillows were lumpy and if you using half sized pillows leave more than 4 on a king size bed. Staff was not willing to listen, only recited their rules over and over. Customers have special circumstances that need to have taken into consideration. When I asked for the manager they just repeated their rules. When the manager was finally involved the problem was solved immediately!

Pros:

We really enjoyed our stay here. The room was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed. The bed was comfortable, the staff was friendly, and the pool was a big hit with the kids. We also really appreciated how quiet the area was and that it wasn’t in a busy location. Overall, it felt like a nice, relaxing place to stay without spending a lot. We’d definitely stay here again.

The Perfect Siesta at Sonesta
Pros:

The first room 125 had a sweaty foot odor. I went to the desk to ask to change it and the second room 431 was perfect. No hassle just made the change with ease.

Cons:

Handicap showers should have slip resistance to avoid slipping. The safety bars are not enough.
