I needed a place to stay close by to the hospital while my husband had surgery, but wanted a warm comfortable place. The place was just what I needed. Shanna was warm and welcoming, and couldn't have done more to make my stay a good one. I felt very much at home. The inn was beautifully decorated and well kept. Breakfast was excellent and there were snacks available at all times, a plus after a long day at the hospital. I would highly recommend this place.

I am every hotels worst nightmare when it comes to my level of pickiness as a guest because I check everywhere. Well, this hotel beat me to the punch! Room 113 was so clean that we booked a second night just to extend our stay there. Sindy was responsible for cleaning my room so I found her and asked how she got it so clean.

We have a child at the university and stayed here for a weekend visit. I had never been, but my husband had stayed years ago for a swim meet. He insisted I book here, though I wanted to stay at the Hilton. I was so pleasantly surprised when I arrived at the Staybridge! The staff was super friendly, and exceptionally efficient. The room was very spacious, and the little kitchen was perfect! The included breakfast was also excellent. I will stay here every visit to Columbia!
