Hotels in Columbus, GeorgiaA basic budget chain hotel beside Columbus State University
4.3/10
Convenient for campus, but recurring cleanliness and maintenance problems make this one to skip.
This is a basic budget chain hotel beside Columbus State University, not a full-service 3-star. Campus access, free parking and Wi-Fi are its strongest selling points, and guests often credit the front-desk staff for being helpful. But the overall picture is weak: Booking.com rates it poorly, while Expedia and Tripadvisor are more mixed. We'd choose another hotel rather than count on this one for a clean, dependable overnight stay.
The concerns go beyond dated decor. Expedia and Hotels.com guests reporting stays in May 2026 describe roaches and a broken elevator; other reviews repeat smoke smells, missing supplies and damaged rooms. A May guest also described the outdoor pool as unusable. Wyndham currently advertises free coffee, not breakfast or a pool, so don't rely on older listings. We'd especially skip it for families or anyone needing reliable elevator access.

Best for: campus visitors prioritizing proximity over comfort; drivers needing free on-site parking
Watch out for: recurring roach and smoke-smell complaints; broken elevator reported in May 2026; pool and breakfast listings are unreliable
Location: Beside Columbus State University and near Peachtree Mall, with easy access to I-185.
Rooms: Basic rooms; repeated reports of damaged fixtures, missing supplies and malfunctioning equipment.
Cleanliness: A major weakness, with recurring pest, smoke-smell and housekeeping complaints.
Service: Helpful staff earn praise, but maintenance and problem resolution remain concerns.
Amenities: Wyndham confirms free Wi-Fi, parking and round-the-clock coffee; don't count on breakfast or swimming.
Fees and surprises: Pets incur a nightly fee; Expedia also lists a pet deposit, and older amenity descriptions conflict.
