"What a great place to stay. My wife & I stayed for one night on the way to Charleston, and wish we could have stayed another. What a quaint & cozy hotel, with a great bar, a friendly staff/bar tender, and great food. The hotel is a refurbished fire station with a lot of memorabilia and nostalgic pictures. We will be back."

8/10 Good
"The hotel is well located in downtown Columbia, SC. It is clean, well maintained and the staff is very personable and helpful. The only issue I had was the hot water in the bathroom sink took 5 minutes to get hot. Thankfully the shower did not take that long. Everything else about the hotel was excellent and I would definitely recommend it to others."
