Beautiful property, exactly as pictured. Very clean!! A couple of minor suggestions would be additional outlets for charging devices and looking into the remote for TV as it was not communicating well. All in all, I would recommend this property & use again for future trips to Columbia.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The property was very clean, and the amenities were well thought out and nicer than in our own home. The beds were super comfortable. The location of the home is 5 minutes from USC, so that was very convenient for our purposes. The neighborhood is lovely and walkable and feels very safe. Lots of walkers and runners about. The host was quick to communicate and very helpful and kind. There are many food options within walking distance and a Publix grocery store a couple blocks away. We loved our stay and will return if it’s available.

This property was fantastic! Exceptionally clean, comfortable beds, and very well appointed! Located in a very safe and quiet neighborhood with quick and easy access to Columbia regional airport, great restaurants, and the University of South Carolina campus. Jill was very responsive to any questions and even allowed us to check in early when our flight arrived sooner than expected! Thank you for a wonderful stay, we would definitely stay here again if we find ourselves in Columbia!

Jill’s property was beyond amazing. I raved about it all weekend. Spotless, fully equipped with anything I possibly needed, the most comfortable beds, and Jill was an absolute doll! I would highly recommend this beautiful house to anyone staying in the Columbia area! I wish I had found it four years ago and not on graduation weekend. Thank you, Jill!
