Travelers beware...
Surely there is a better choice for overnight stay in the area than the Courtyard Marriott in Columbia NW, SC!!! During our overnight, a Wednesday, EVERY vehicle in the parking lot was burglarized.
We were fortunate to have minimal damage compared to other vehicles and minimal loss of propert. Some business travelers had losses nearing $10,000 in computer equipment, tools, gps systems.
Having 8 years as a police officer and investigating these types of crimes, only offenders who are very comfortable with the area take the time to methodically hit every, single vehicle. While waiting to complete the report, we noticed broken glass from previous break-ins in the cracks of the pavement. According to the police, it's a very common occurrance here.
I saw zero evidence of effort on the part of Courtyard to prevent future incidents.
