#3 of 3 hotels in USC & Five Points by Axel's take. USC & Five Points is #3 of 5 places to stay in Columbia, South Carolina. The best hotels in USC & Five Points, ranked · Where to stay in Columbia, South Carolina

Axel's take: 7.0/10

Useful suites and a convenient USC location, but housekeeping and upkeep are inconsistent. a practical 3-star extended-stay hotel near USC, scored for what it is.

This 3-star extended-stay hotel makes sense for USC visits when extra space and a kitchenette matter more than polish. Its downtown location, included breakfast and pet-friendly suites are useful basics. Expedia and Tripadvisor guests repeatedly praise individual staff members, especially the breakfast team, and plenty report clean, comfortable rooms. We'd consider it a practical campus base, rather than a standout among Columbia's mid-range hotels.

Consistency is the catch. Recent reviews also describe missed housekeeping, worn furnishings, maintenance faults and rooms not ready at check-in. The indoor pool—not an outdoor pool—draws repeated complaints about cold water, so confirm its condition if swimming matters. Parking and pets carry extra charges. We'd skip it if dependable housekeeping and well-maintained rooms matter more than suite space and location.

  • Best for: USC visitors wanting extra space; Longer stays needing a kitchenette; Travelers bringing pets

  • Watch out for: Uneven housekeeping and room upkeep; Reported check-in delays; Repeated complaints about cold pool water

  • Location: Convenient for walking to USC and the State House.

  • Rooms: Spacious suites with kitchenettes; guests also report worn furnishings and maintenance faults.

  • Cleanliness: Many guests report clean rooms, but recent housekeeping lapses recur across review sites.

  • Service: Individual staff earn strong praise; check-in and problem handling are less consistent.

  • Amenities: Included breakfast, Wi-Fi, gym and indoor pool; confirm pool conditions before relying on it.

  • Fees and surprises: Self-parking and pets cost extra; Hilton lists no airport shuttle.
