Eat & Drink

Sample American specialties at Chick-fil-A located just around the corner from this Columbia hotel.

“The in-room kitchens stand out, especially at the rates offered, and the staff clearly makes an effort. While some past guests noted the need for a deeper clean, the option to cook and save, plus the pet-friendly atmosphere, could make it a practical choice. I see this as a reliable, budget-friendly option, particularly for longer stays, with a few manageable trade-offs.”
