Good location, grouped with a variety of other hotels. Pretty good, well lit parking lot. Room was clean and spacious. Made to order breakfast doesn't seem to exist, but there were warm options and fruit provided, wish is nice

Convenient location at a reasonable price. We arrived 7am and they were able to let us stay for a few hours just to get some sleep after driving all night.

Good, friendly staff. They worked with me when I was late paying one morning. Unlike their neighbor hotel who kept my entire deposit as a late fee that I'm disputing with my bank. The breakfast was very slack. The rooms have been kept up. They are very clean and spacious.

To be honest as I previously worked for Hilton, staying here wasn’t bad at all. The only thing they’re missing is a renovation. Can’t complain too much with prices like these. Def a clutch hotel when needed! 217

Been on the road thru many states this holiday season and stopped in at Baymont Inn. First thing I noticed was how clean their bathroom smelled. That alone let me know I was going to B very happy with my stay and I was. Very clean and the room was spacious with all the amenities 5 star all around. Definitely recommend to military visitors

I have been staying at this hotel for several months now, this hotel is my go to for number of reasons. #1 staff are very friendly and help me out so much. #2 they always give me the room that I want and keep the rooms very clean. Breakfast is pretty good too and the location is perfect. It’s close to fort Jackson, I-77 and many other locations that I need to go.

Room has some items to be fixed: leaking water, bathroom door, holes in certain. But overall it’s clean, no bad smell. Staff is very welcoming and friendly both reception and breakfast.

The hotel service was great. Our bathroom handle broke and they were so calm about it and they fixed it ASAP. Lovely service. And the room was super clean.
