It was sufficient
Pros:

The staff was friendly and greeted us every time we came or went. It was easy to get to the UofSC campus.

Cons:

Overall it was very worn. There was a cockroach enjoying the bathroom. We are hoping we didn't take him home. We ran out of tissues and were almost out of toilet paper so we asked for more. It was not brought to us that day. The next day, we had to go ask a second time and have them hand the items directly to us. They also never came to check the rooms or empty garbage, we were there for 5 days. We didn't need the sheets changed, but fresh towels, without asking, on the 3rd day would have been nice.

I was very dissapointed, the room pictures online are from the place we stayed in and I would not recommend this place t
Pros:

The staff were all very nice!!

Cons:

The pictures of the rooms that are online are not pictures of the room we stayed in. It was not very clean. There were hairs in the bed. The entire place had a horrible smell like incense or something similar. The staff was very nice and the hotel was not far from the Colonial Life Arena where we had tickets but that’s the only good thing I can say about this this place!!
