At Sleep Inn Columbia Airport, reviews are mixed: many praise friendly, helpful staff and convenient airport access, while others report inconsistent cleanliness, dated rooms, weak air conditioning, strong odors, pests, and some amenities out of order.
Several guests cite added hospitality fees and sizable deposits, sometimes charged upfront or tied to early check-in or pets. Views of the area and noise are mixed: a few felt unsafe or noted interstate noise, while others found it quiet inside. Overall, this is a practical stopover if budget matters more than polish.

You can tell the hotel is being updated in steps. Lobby and breakfast are was nice. New floors throughout lobby and rooms. Our room had an odd smell. Furniture was outdated and chunks were missing from what was in our room. Door to the bathroom was off the track so it was not easy to close, my 9 year old could not at all. Mattresses were extremely stiff and I did not sleep well at all. I obviously knew it would be noisy being next to and airpot, which really did not help me getting comfortable.

Good where it counts most. Only stayed one night to break up a long drive. Had late check in around 10pm. Staff was pleasant. Room was clean and smelled faintly of bleach, but in a good way. Walls were thick, could not hear other guests and the king sized bed was very comfortable (included a box spring - hooray)! Did not hear doors opening & shutting or the elevator either. (We were directly across the hall from the elevator.) Traffic woke me around 6:30 when some large trucks went through, but was able to quickly fall back asleep. Pillows were ok. Temperature was good, had option to leave fan on constant too. Free breakfast was better than it initially looked. Scrambled eggs & sausage were in small containers with plastic tops. Both were surprisingly tasty - one waffle maker as well. Property overall would benefit from a refresh. Seems they recently updated the floor in the bathroom which looked nice, walls were also recently painted. Unfortunately the bath door needed to be adjusted to accommodate the new height. Completely shutting it was a challenge and rather loud. We opted to leave the door slightly open to not wake each other. Tub area should be gutted next. Jets in tub did not work (there was a sign so we would know) and tile needs new grout. Pool was covered during stay in late September :( Would stay here again if driving the same route. Very conveniently located a couple minutes off the interstate, was easy to get in/out, & parking was good.

This was my first experience with Sleep Inn-I believe this may have been a franchise. Be aware they charge a $6 "hospitality fee" which I was told included conditioner for your hair....even if you don't need shampoo and conditioner, they charge you. I was told it was the same if you went to a spa and they charged you a "hospitality fee"...but this was no spa-There was no conditioner in the room...only the usual small bottle of shampoo and a small bar of soap in the shower and sink-I usually bring my own shampoo because of a medical condition. I think the hospitality charge is just a "gimmick" for the franchiser to get additional revenue. There was an odor in the room, which was not a "clean" smell-carpet look questionable and a broken window-air conditioner and tv worked as they should-shower looked like it needed extra cleaning around where the door meets where you walk in. One garbage can....located in bathroom. Tried to use the dirty phone to call front desk and it did not work-Location was easy to find. Good parking. Seemed like a safe area. Had a workout room and outside pool that was closed for the season.Bed was confortable and appeared clean.Breakfast was good-the lady in charge was very attentive to customer needs and was probably one of the best employees at this location. Not sure if I will stay at another one of this chain or not-we travel several times a year back and forth from Ohio to Florida and had taken a different route and decided to try this facility.

This hotel had boogers on the walls along with other stains. The a/c unit never actually cooled down the room and the room was humid and felt like a dungeon. We demanded a different room which was a little better but I would never stay here again especially for the price!

One of the dirtiest and outdated hotels that I’ve stayed in for a while. Unfortunately this was the most comfortable price I was willing to spend in that area. The whole place smelled. Especially floor 4. We had to spray our room to be able to handle it for 2 nights. Shower was very outdated and dirty. Carpet was also gross. The window curtain was covered in filth and left a residue on us when we touched it. The complimentary breakfast was the only part that we liked.

Our room was disgusting. I took pictures but there was literally a chunk of gross hair chunks that was like two inches long in the shower. There was stuff on the walls. The ice bucket was so dirty we couldn’t use it- greasy and gross with chunks and finger prints. They did not have extra. The only thing that made this visit positive is the guy working the front desk in the evening was so nice when we were checking in.

This room is too small for 2 queen beds. One side of each of the beds is way too close to the wall and difficult to get up off in the middle of the night. In addition, although after I read the exact fee for pets after the fact a $50.00 fee for a parrot in a cage is outrageous. Never again

The bathroom sliding door hard to use . The handles were silver shop handles not a hotel room style also the door marked up. I did inform the front staff on leaving no compensation offered

This low budget property has the nerve to charge a $40 "early check-in" fee? Appalling!!! My room smelled like a garbage dump and NO ONE cleaned it during my entire stay. That means no replacement of towels, toilet paper, etc......ZERO services offered. Additionally, the hotel manager is extremely unfriendly and distant. The words "Thanks for your business" would never enter her unappreciative mind. She wouldn\'t last two minutes in any viable business. My parting comment for this dark, dirty, disgusting dump: NEVER AGAIN!

The first lady behind the desk was super rude. We arrived we 2:20. She was sitting in the office did not greet us at first then when we got her attention, she rudely said check in at three or you pay the $40 to check in early. It was not really busy, but I understand policies. So we left and went to eat. Then when we came back the Second Lady wasn’t much nicer. Plus the pool was closed and we booked there to sit at the pool while we waited for our concert. The room was OK, but there was a weird humming sound kind of sounded like a coffee maker. It kept me up all night long. And then the shower had black around the bottom. I would never stay there again or recommend it.

The biggest problem we had was that our bathroom door would not close completely, and the air conditioner was a bit lackluster. That said, the staff was fabulous in helping us get a new room with no fuss and helping us out with little needs here and there. In fact, I would give the staff a 6 out of five if I could. Otherwise, the place is in an extremely convenient location, the beds were comfortable, and the breakfast area was both clean and well stocked with delicious offerings. If I had to fly back into Columbia I would gladly stay here again.

Andrew at the front desk saved this review! Thank you Andrew! Arrived 9/9/24 @ 9pm, got room 403. Great conversation with Andrew while checking in. Up to 403 and as soon as we opened the door the smell just punched us in the face. Conteplated just leaving altogether. Decided to go chat with Andrew and I approaced him very humbly and stated the issue, he apologized and checked for other rooms. Room 102 he said, he took me to 102 and we looked at it together. Room 102 was night and day different. We made the switch to 102 and slept great! We really appreciated the great service. The hotel is older, needs some freshening up and maybe some mold remediation. If not satisfied with the room go talk to Andrew and see if he can help you out. Being pleasant goes along ways both ways.

The staff were very friendly and helpful. The location is not far from downtown Columbia, SC nor the airport. Breakfast areas were ready and clean prepped early in the morning by hard-working staff. He also kept the area clean with other housekeepers. I would highly recommend this hotel to those who are looking for a short-term or long-term stay, it is very clean and convenient for getting to the town which is right off the exit. Please support the local and check it out!!!!

There was nothing spectacular about the property. It’s a hotel off the interstate, the breakfast was ok, it was quiet, it is near an airport but the noise wasn’t bad at all.

While the area was a bit iffy, room entrance was from the interior of the building. Entrance to lobby in the late evening didn’t require a key so safety was a little issue.

Area felt a bit sketchy but the employee I dealt with was awesome and the bed was super comfy. Worth the money, wish they had less scary looking folks walking around shirtless.

Location was great but because it was so close to the interstate it made it quite noisy. Even being close to the airport didnt contribute to the noise.

The staff was pleasant and the room ok. When we went to breakfast at 8:20, there wasn’t any food left though 😞. So no breakfast for us.

most outlets in our room didn't work. Breakfast was closed earlier than stated on Saturday. Food was allowed to run out on Sunday with no sense of urgency on the part of staff to replace. Dirty towels and bath mat were removed, but not replaced. Shower had a damaged handle, so water temp regulation was difficult. bath sink water would not warm. Staff seemed friendly, but clueless for the most part

Mostly clean for an older property. The breakfast was very nice with more options than breads! The scrambled eggs and sausage patties were good.

Good where it counts most. Only stayed one night to break up a long drive. Had late check in around 10pm. Staff was pleasant. Room was clean and smelled faintly of bleach, but in a good way. Walls were thick, could not hear other guests and the king sized bed was very comfortable (included a box spring - hooray)! Did not hear doors opening & shutting or the elevator either. (We were directly across the hall from the elevator.) Traffic woke me around 6:30 when some large trucks went through, but was able to quickly fall back asleep. Pillows were ok. Temperature was good, had option to leave fan on constant too. Free breakfast was better than it initially looked. Scrambled eggs & sausage were in small containers with plastic tops. Both were surprisingly tasty - one waffle maker as well. Property overall would benefit from a refresh. Seems they recently updated the floor in the bathroom which looked nice, walls were also recently painted. Unfortunately the bath door needed to be adjusted to accommodate the new height. Completely shutting it was a challenge and rather loud. We opted to leave the door slightly open to not wake each other. Tub area should be gutted next. Jets in tub did not work (there was a sign so we would know) and tile needs new grout. Pool was covered during stay in late September :( Would stay here again if driving the same route. Very conveniently located a couple minutes off the interstate, was easy to get in/out, & parking was good.

The biggest problem we had was that our bathroom door would not close completely, and the air conditioner was a bit lackluster. That said, the staff was fabulous in helping us get a new room with no fuss and helping us out with little needs here and there. In fact, I would give the staff a 6 out of five if I could. Otherwise, the place is in an extremely convenient location, the beds were comfortable, and the breakfast area was both clean and well stocked with delicious offerings. If I had to fly back into Columbia I would gladly stay here again.
