Needs a good deep clean
The place is good for a quick 1 night sleep and hit the road in the morning. The rooms could use a deep clean. The walls in the bathroom were gross. The chair in our room was filthy and the room smelled moldy, we rented 2 rooms the room the kids (21&23) stayed in smelled a lot better I didn't really look closely at anything in that room other than for bed bugs which neither room had thank God.

Hotel is about 15 minutes away from the University of South Carolina Campus. Hotel was clean and bed was comfortable. Just not a lot of choices for restaurants.
