Columbia Hotels with Pools

I couldn’t ask for a better place to stay to bring in the new years … or in general ! I will deff be back !! The views. The location. The inside is the hotel. Beyond perfect. Great for walking. Great for walking with little ones. Everything worth seeing is soooo close. My daughter and I truly enjoyed it and still are enjoying ourselves.

I stayed here for one night while playing at an Oktoberfest off site. It was bascially pretty good. The room was modern and nice. There is a lot of noise fromt he street but it was Saturday night. The parking is in their garage and is free. You are just given a slip of paper to put on your dash. Check in and out were basically good. I did try to check out and got someone else's bill by accident. This was corrected though. The breakfast was not a good experience as I had to buy a dried oatmeal canister to put in my microwave. The coffee was good as it was Starbucks. All in all, if you are staying on campus, this is a good choice.

I don't like leaving negative reviews because I understand things happen. Especially when I must say Embassy Suites has been our go to hotel. Unfortunately, we are going to have to switch to a different brand. It is understandable that hotel cannot stay “brand new” however routine maintenance of the rooms should be a minimum. The past few times we have stay it has been the same thing, the rooms have been run down. If it is not a newer hotel, the Embassy brand does not seem to do just a basic job of maintenance. Our most recent stay, the room was subpar at best. The bathtub was peeling, the furniture had so may stains on them my wife pulled the sheet of the bed just to sit on it, the wall paper had ripples in it, not bubbles but ripples. To top it off, we got bit by only what we can say were beg bugs. If it was for the poor maintenance, I would chalk the beg bugs up to what happens in the hotel industry, they are bound to happen even at the most expensive of hotels however, this hotel was so poorly maintained, it is more likely they have take not measure to control this. We have noticed this trend with older Embassy Suites Hotels, usually located in predominately minority populated areas. Really sad. The staff was nice and friendly but they can’t make up for the poor room. If we would have checked in earlier, we would have demanded a refund and went somewhere else.

Ned is an amazing asset to Hilton. Ned went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. A coworker and I sat at the long business table to finish up our workday, Ned made sure to check on us several times and even brought food and drinks to us, even though we were not in the restaurant/ bar area. We were able to relax while we we finished our workday. Ps. The brisket grilled cheese sandwich is AMAZING! Make sure you order one, you won’t regret it.

I'm a little late with my review, but I dare not leave feedback for the staff who catered to my family and our needs during one of the most heartbreaking times of our lives. My family and I flew from all over to gather for my dear grandmother's funeral. From day one, Deshaun and Ashley have been very sweet, accommodating and supportive of whatever requests we needed. The events manager (forgot her name!) was also a huge help in letting us have the private repass in one of the conference rooms. We stayed for 2 weeks ,having to extend our time to help situation my grandmother's affairs and Ashley was very helpful in assisting us with multiple rooms and keeping us all near each other. While not all of the staff were as friendly or helpful, I am making it a point to call out those who were. We had a few housekeeping issues during certain shifts, but again we don't normally stay in local hotels for such an extended period of time, so I guess it was to be expected. We made the most of it and were grateful for the time we were there. Oh, and I dare not shout out the bartender, I think his name was Troy?! He was such a sweetheart and made some of the best Henny cocktails I've ever had. He consoled me on one of my bad nights missing my granny and he's a great listener! Thank you so much for those of you who helped and aided with my family during our time of need.

This property did a nice job at doing everything it set out to do, but not trying to be more and instead focus on getting the important stuff right. As a whole, I left very satisfied, and please look below for a more detailed outline. Location: 5 Stars It’s super close to a mall, tons of restaurants, a grocery store, gas stations, and is easily accessible from I26. Curb Appeal: 5 Stars The outside is in fantastic shape and looks nice no matter how close or far you are. The landscaping is also well done, and parking is plentiful and well lit. Common Areas: 5 Stars While I didn’t make use of the pool, I can vouch for the business and fitness center being perfectly adequate, and all of the sitting areas, hallways, plus elevators were well appointed, and were kept clean throughout my stay. Customer Service: 6 Stars I couldn’t help but give a bit of a bonus here, this is seriously one of the best managed hotel, and probably the friendliest people I’ve encountered in the industry. Jessica specifically was fantastic, she’s definitely in the right industry. The Room Itself: 4.5 Stars I had room 407 which was a 1 Queen Studio Suite and was nearly perfect. The entry way was well lit, and had a spacious closet with tons of clever storage solutions (a theme that continues throughout the room) and all the amenities a good hotel would have. There was also a galley kitchen across from it that did everything you’d expect with nice and clean dishware. Past this was a rather nice desk area that was well lit and had plenty of outlets and a ton of built in storage. Beyond this is the sofa which was pretty comfy and featured some tables. The view was nothing special but the drapes where in good shape and the HVAC worked well. The bed was also nice and had plenty of storage and plugs around it. Last but not least is the spacious and spotless restroom with tons of storage and a functional sink and toilet. The only complaint about my stay would be the fact that the shower had a few rough patches in the caulk and the curtain was every so slightly too long and proved a nuisance when trying to shower. Neither of these are big deals though. Value: 5 Stars Considering this was the cheapest mid scale hotel in the neighborhood, and included an above average free breakfast, I consider it an excellent value. Summary: If you’re coming to the Columbiana area, I think I found your hotel!

I was so disappointed in my stay. First let me say I received a call when I checked in to see how things were and I said fine. Well later when I was ready to shower, I realized there was no body wash in the compartment. I called downstairs and some was brought up. Then as I was cleaning up the living area, I realized the trash had not been taken out from the previous guest. This really made me feel as if my room had not been cleaned properly. I had no coffee cups or coffee in my room just a coffee lid. I just did not have a pleasant stay at all. The room was spacious and the renovations were nice but apprehensive about staying again.

Everyone was courteous and Mary (housekeeping)was the best she helped with what ever we needed , thank you for a pleasant visit. The food was great, and the people running the kitchen were excellent. We’d like to thank everybody for making us feel at home. Thank you all.
