Pros: close to Ft Jackson Cons: *Room was saturated with a pungent stale cigarette smell (gain febreeze was offered) *Large old blood stain on mattress and mattress cover. (Only the sheets were changed when they “re cleaned” the room *closet area clearly not swept out and there was someone’s paper drivers license and trash left *refrigerator leaked all over the floor and they didn’t have any towels to give to replace the ones we used to soak up the water *bathtub filthy with pubs and dirt which was the final straw and they came to “re clean” *upon arriving back from dinner we were informed they had just finished re cleaning but that the hot water was now out *so I couldn’t bathe my kids in cold water and it wasn’t back on until the next morning. The gas line wasn’t their fault, but the accumulation of events on issues made the situation that much worse. We ended up leaving the next day and asking for a full refund, which we got. The ladies at the front desk were nice and ultimately tried to be helpful. The pool was not in working order either.

Broken equipment scattered throughout the hotel, peeling paint, entire lobby reeks of pot, food and trash all over the hallways and stairwells, got no sleep both nights because of extremely loud guests going up and down the hallway that the staff finally did something about at 3 am on the second night. Absolutely worst hotel stay I’ve ever had anywhere. I’m pissed off that I actually paid them to stay in this garbage place for two nights.
Half the lamps in the room were on their last legs it looked like a thrift store haul
Three days this equipment didn’t move.
Screws sticking out poking my hand when I went to turn the handle.
Completely missing door handle.
