It's an older building. Rooms are updated. The pool was too cold for my girls to enjoy but I do like the pool room. The hot tub was out of commission which was disappointing. I would say this is a great hotel for adults but not for families with little kids. The beds were very comfortable, I liked the pillows. Lots of drippy glass though. We had a great view from the 6th floor. I personally enjoyed it, my kids did not :)

The elevator closest to the breeze way from the parking lot to the Hotel wasn't working. Had to walk downstairs with luggage and kids to first floor to get to the 10th floor. Other than that, excellent everything else. We arrived after 10PM.

This hotel was close to UofSC which we were visiting and in a great location for bars and restaurants. Hotel and room were very clean. Beds were very comfortable. Service was not great. 4 ppl in my room and they only gave us 2 bath towels. Called for more as we were all taking showers. An hour later still no towels. My husband went out into the hallway and found 2 more towels in a closet. 2 hours later they still never brought the towels. The pool which I wanted for the kids was small and the room was kind of run down and the exercise room was really run down. The treadmill belts actually had giant rips in them which can't be safe so I ran outside instead. The area around the hotel is very nice.
