Travelers beware... Surely there is a better choice for overnight stay in the area than the Courtyard Marriott in Columbia NW, SC!!! During our overnight, a Wednesday, EVERY vehicle in the parking lot was burglarized. We were fortunate to have minimal damage compared to other vehicles and minimal loss of propert. Some business travelers had losses nearing $10,000 in computer... more

Nicely updated Courtyard hotel. Lobby, restaurant and all public areas are nicely redone and high quality. Rooms were also very nice, new carpeting, bathroom fixtures and great mattress with top notch bedding. Wireless internet was fast and free. The area surrounding the hotel is horrible. This is basically a safe haven in the middle of the ghetto. The other hotels... more

After reading the many negative reviews I was pleasantly surprised at this hotel. My room was located down the hall from the lobby on the first floor. It was clean and spacious. The flatscreen tv was another plus. There is a Wallmart across the highway and plenty of restaurants close by. The free coffee in the lobby was nice. The... more

I must disagree with the older reviews!! I just stayed at this Courtyard and had a wonderful stay!!! They must have completed a renovation because all rooms were like "new". I was pleasantly surprised to find a 32 inch flat screen TV awaiting me when I walked into my room. The staff was extremely nice and breakfast although not included... more

I had reviewed trip advisor and at check in I asked if they were still doing construction and the clerk said "No they had finished". I got checked in and everything was nice. Rooms were nice, clean and comfortable. Everything when well until my wife and I came back from diner. There were no parking close to our room so... more

I'm a Marriott Platinum member and have stayed at quite a few Courtyards. This is one of the older Courtyards and it shows. The bedding (Nov '06) was the older style, my internet connection didn't work so I had to be moved, parking lot was dark and scary. I would definately choose the other Courtyard next time I stay in... more

We tried to get a room at the Marriott downtown, and since they were full, we were sent here instead. What a disappointment! I stayed here on business w/ a coworker, and both of our rooms were shameful. Mine was marked no-smoking, but absolutely reeked of cigarette smoke. It was damp, the carpet was sticky, and we were both just... more

I should have taken the advice of Trip Advisor!!! I read the reviews, saw that it was ranked 44 of 77 in the city and thought, "it's close to where I need to be and how bad can a Marriott Courtyard be?" I stay at a lot of different hotels and a lot of Marriott’s. This is the dirtiest Marriott... more

I had asked for a first floor room. When I arrived I was given a third floor room. I had to park around back where the lighting was very poor. The person on the desk was very rude. There was lint on the carpet, blood on the walls and hairs in the tub. During the night I was bitten by... more
