“Excellent Price/Quality Ratio”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 18, 2012

In town for the School of Americas protest and associated discussions, I decided to stay at this location, which was at the very north end of town in a commercial area with a number of chain restaurants. It seemed safer than much of Columbus. The reception staff were very friendly and eager to please; they even checked on whether or not I liked the room after checking in. Generally speaking, the hotel seemed very new and clean. I had reserved a King Suite, which was really just a sitting area plus bed. It was well worth it, though; it had a fridge for my beer, a cabinet for my pistachios as well as a microwave in case I needed to warm up some hair removal wax. While the sofa already looked a little worn, it was comfortable, and I was able to lie back on it and watch television and drink beer. The bed was also comfy, and I slept very well. The bathroom was nice and spacious, although the amenities were way too basic (the shampoo didn't really lather). I did use the jacuzzi next to the gym, but when I first went down, I had to have someone open the door for me. The jets were not working properly; only one had any strength. Also, the door to the outside was not open (they could not find the key), so the room was really too hot for comfort. I did use the gym in the morning and thought the treadmill and available towels were very nice. The breakfast was plentiful with a choice of eggs, meat, biscuits and gravy, cereal, bagels and decent coffee (available 24 hours). The tables were made of granite and had nice chairs. Overall, I was impressed at how nice the hotel was and would come back to stay in a heartbeat.

“Excellent Service!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 4, 2012

The staff has exceeded my expectations throughout my stay. When the pay dryer broke, the staff dried my clothes in their laundry facility. When I left my rental car lights on, Ben at the front desk called room to room to find the car's driver. After I verified that it was my rental car, he said that he could arrange to get the car jumped if the battery was dead. (Fortunately, the lights weren't on that long so a jump wasn't needed.) Room service was excellent. The breakfast included fresh cinnamon rolls! The only drawback is the hotel is a little tricky to find because it's offset from one of the main roads. I highly recommend this hotel for a quiet stay in Columbus, GA.

Room Tip: Bring a clothespin if you get a room facing the parking lot. The parking lot lights are very bright...

“Great place to stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 4, 2012

Great place to stay. Breakfast was so-so. Omelet was frozen and re-heated in microwave. Probably not uncommon for this class of hotel. Sleeping quarters was very nice. New hotel. Friendly staff. Very clean rooms. Good value. Comparable to other hotels in the area. Good location to the new mall in Columbus.
