Very clean, quiet and comfortable. Nice ambiance, and location.

There was no hand soap in the bathroom. Also, you only get two free coffees your entire stay per room. So if you have more than two people staying, they have to pay for coffee, and if you are staying longer than one night, you have to pay for your coffee after the first night. There were bottles of water in the room and on the cap only they say $5.00. If people aren't careful, they can easily open the bottles without seeing the $5 label. Pretty cheap for a nice hotel.

The rooms are decorated with the Gamecock theme: you know you're on the campus when you stay here! The staff was extremely helpful at check-in, check-out, and during the stay. We received great local restaurant recommendations for both lunch and dinner, they did not disappoint. The staff was also extremely welcoming each time we would return from an outing.

It would be a struggle to find something that I didn't like about this place. In fact, I can't even think of anything petty.

I loved the southern charm! It was beautiful and with quaint rooms that were loaded with interesting old rare books that you’d find in a one of a kind little unique bookstore. Also, we just loved the staff. Ciara’s was fantastic and helped us get checked in with such a great personality. I can’t remember our two bartenders but they were super personable and I really fancied our conversation. Thank you all! Lastly, we were able to bike ride after dinner to burn some of the calories and feel the breeze before bedtime. I have nothing but found memories!

The property is outstanding.

Great location

Wonderful accommodations! Great location for access to USC campus. Clean, Comfortable and Charming facility. Would definitely recommend and hope to stay here again soon!

The decor was adorable, the room was so cozy, loved that there was a bar and food, location was perfect for college orientation!

Extremely clean Bartender Sam was the best - great suggestion for dinner and served up fantastic drinks

I liked EVERYTHING! The moment I entered the doors of Columbia Graduate I was impressed. The decor was bright and colorful. I liked the layout and how easy locating everything was. Graduate Columbia provided safety and sanitation for the guests. The lobby was filled with a light welcoming aroma too. The property and facility are also very clean. We did not want to leave !

We liked EVERYTHING !

Loved the decor and the staff were very friendly and helpful. Wonderful bar, very comfortable beds and clean rooms.

The gym wasn't great. 5lb and 10 lb dumbells were MIA and 1/2 treadmills wasn't working but it was nice to have a space to get a quick work out in after a long day traveling. Wish I would have taken more photos!

The desk staff are wonderful - friendly, welcoming, and (justifiably) proud of - and knowledgeable about - the history of the lovely old house that forms the center (lobby, bar, sitting room, and amazing upstairs suites) of the hotel. The regular guest room décor is quite unusual, with a funky USC undergrad and sports mascot theme, and the entire experience is delightfully different from that of the usual chain hotel. Beds and pillows are comfortable, and the lounge/bar is welcoming. Several outdoor seating areas are also available for friends to gather. No free breakfast, but being conveniently located in downtown Columbia at the edge of the USC campus, one is walking distance from many good restaurants and coffee shops in the 5-points area. The hotel also has a restaurant. Be warned that there is a $10/night charge for parking, but given the dearth of affordable parking in the area, and the likelihood that a parking garage would be much pricier, it's a reasonable fee. I look forward to returning for another stay!

It's hard to find the entrance when arriving by car; one end of this parking area/entry is gated (presumably to prevent people from using it as a cut-through) and of course that was the end we tried first :( Just keep going around the block and you'll find it. Otherwise, absolutely no complaints!
