"My stay would have been five stars if it wasn’t for the dirty tub which had hair and dirt in it so I cleaned it with dish soap so I could take a bath, and it turned out they had covered a rusty indented area that clearly doesn’t drain on its own up with some white stuff that flaked up and then was floating in the bath and the rust worried me so that was worrisome. Other than that the king suit was like a tiny cute apartment and the place was clean and comfortable. The outdoor areas was nicely...

"I didn’t get to stay after booking the room through Expedia, I get to the hotel and there were no rooms. Brent tried to put me in a room that the people did not stay. They had used a bed and used the shower. He asked when I pointed that out if I wanted him to clean it. His boss called and said try another room, 107, and there was someone in that room. I basically paid to sleep in my car! Sad part is, I thought about trying somewhere else and there was still a room listed on Expedia. I think...

Top Smith Lake Dam Hotel Reviews

The Broadway Columbia - a DoubleTree by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"I had an absolutely wonderful stay! From the moment I arrived, the staff went above and beyond—when I accidentally went to the wrong entrance, a guest services representative actually walked over to meet me and guided me straight to the front desk. That level of service is rare! The entire property was spotlessly clean, smelled amazing, and the beds were incredibly comfortable. Polite, helpful staff and a fantastic experience overall."
