Extended Stay America - Columbia - West - Interstate 126

Great Staff! Average hotel.

Walked in to the lobby at 11AM. The check-in time wasn't included in my e-mail so I had to take my chances when I was dropped off. I was informed that check-in wouldn't be until about 2PM. I waited maybe four minutes before the staff came back and gave us a room that had just been cleaned for me. While I waited, another staff member had just arrived and also asked if I had been helped yet. Both were incredibly helpful and kind. I was given a key card to a non-smoking room and it looked/felt clean enough. The A/C blew ice cold and got the room frigid in under 5 minutes which was amazing for that humid SC air. Everything was basic and bare minimum but for a last minute booking, it was average price. Fridge and tub were cleaned.

Small kitchenette and small bathroom. You should stay here if you have your own vehicle. It's somewhat problematic walking from the corner of this property up and around to the local gas station or Waffle House for food. My bed cover had two cigarette holes in them and I could tell they'd been washed but there for a while. I wasn't bothered by anyone. You can hear the interstate quite clearly through the windows. People obviously don't stay here because it was their first choice. They stay because surrounding hotels were booked and they got this last minute. Again, you get what you paid for!
