Pleasant surprise

Prior to booking, I had seen some poor reviews. However, I was pleasantly surprised. The staff were pleasant, and the facility served our needs . The gym was great as well as the breakfast area. The rooms were decent and the beds were relatively comfortable. The only complaint was the water pressure for the shower, and the electronics for the blinds was not working in our unit. They were going to to have maintenance investigate, but it didn't get done in our week that we stayed there.

Stayed with with family. Loved how close the shopping center was and other stores. However I was very disappointed towards the night. My child complained of a weird smell from the bed. Turnes out the complete bedding they were about to sleep on had some horrible sweaty body odor from the previous person that slept there. Either the sheets were not changed at all or not washed right. The staff was nice enough to give us some new sheets but doesnt excuse the fact that the bed was not properly changed and was unsanitary. We normally do book tru hotels but was very disappointed this time.

The second time was not great.

This is our second trip through Columbia, and we stayed at this hotel. The first time, the hotel was brand new, and we loved our stay; however, it seemed overused this time. There were stains on the walls, the towels were clean yet dingy in color, and it did not seem well kept. The lobby seemed messy, with random items on the counter. I love the location, and the pet area is terrific. But the scent of staleness seemed in the elevator, and the black-out shade was broken.

Family Visit

Overall, the stay was decent. Definitely not worth the price. Room was dusty but not enough to complain. Floor wasn't swept or mopped but I travel with a Swifter. The corners of the bed or sharp so watch walking around them. The slot that the ice machine releases from is rusted. The guest furniture in the lobby is stained and there is a tight fit with the current furniture arrangement. Decline of Tru since our last visit 6 mos ago. Will stay somewhere else next time if price doesn't lower. Decent for a 1-2 night stay but because there are no dressers you can't unpack unless "everything" is hangable BUT bring your own hangers. All else was fine.

Great hotel

The hotel is always clean. The staff is usually always very nice. My only issue with the hotel this time is the water pressure in the sink was extremely low

The size of our room and bathroom were huge, comfy, and very clean. I appreciated the liquid soap and lotion dispensers, and everything we needed in the tub/shower.
