La Quinta Inn by Wyndham Columbia SE / Fort Jackson
The updated room is esthetically pleasing and modern. Best stay for your dollar in this area. The staff is all pleasant and even through the aging of the building they seem to be managing well. The elevators are a lil janky but they work. I didn't try the breakfast this visit.

Courtyard by Marriott Columbia Downtown at USC
The hotel is clean but if you book the room with any kind of discount they will but you on the 3rd floor where they fill all the room and it gets noisy. I asked to be moved to the 2nd floor and told there would be a $90 charge for the same type room that I already had. Very strange.
