What guests think

Many reviews for WoodSpring Suites Columbia Fort Jackson describe a budget stay with very mixed experiences, highlighting frequent cleanliness problems (including roaches and strong smoke/marijuana odors), worn maintenance, and occasional security concerns around entrances and the parking area.

Several guests praise friendly, helpful staff, though housekeeping is inconsistent and some report unreliable keys or elevators, and intermittent Wi-Fi or TV service. Rooms are basic and dated with minimal amenities and maintenance issues; a few travelers found them clean, quiet, and adequate for short stays. The location is convenient to Fort Jackson and nearby stores, but multiple reviews describe a sketchy atmosphere and pervasive smoke smells. Expect a no-frills, variable experience focused on low price over comfort.

The room was not the cleanest. The toilet was wabbly which sucked. I saw 1 roach going from the bathroom to the kitchen area. The room had a kitchen but no equipment to use. When i called the front office they said they sold pots and pans but where out of stock. Here i was with a fridge full of food, but no pots to cook in. Not a good experience at all. Not coming back

I came here after my home was destroyed during the hurricane for somewhere to stay for a few days with power and water. There was drug activity going on outside every night, the facility was dirty and run down. The elevator got stuck at one point and the bed linens were not clean. Was grateful for shelter, but this hotel is 1 star at best. The staff however were all very nice and helpful!

There were roaches in my room and black mold in the bathroom. I asked for fresh towels and the day manager (I guess) wanted me to go back to my room and get the dirty towels and then get fresh towels. I asked if I could get the clean towels now and bring the dirty towels back, she told me no. That’s not how they do it there. I told her that this was my first time staying at the place and I wasn’t aware of their rules. She finally let me take the towels and stood outside in the hall until I put the dirty towels out. I will not stay there again.

Soon as got in my room I saw a roach. The front desk attendant got me another room. And no surprise, more roaches. Where there's one there's a colony. Riff raff running in and out the building. This is clearly a property people stay at because they can't get traditional housing. The bed frames were squeaky and wobbly. And it wasn't very clean. On my way out one morning there was a bag of trash leaking in the hall. When i returned more than 8 hours later it was still there. I really want a refund.

The service was great the hotel itself … not so much. There was a thick layer of dirt and dust on top of the fridge. Bathroom dirty..Severely outdated, roaches. And the smell of lovely cigarette smoke and marijuana fill the halls and your room if you’re lucky . BOTH of which I hate VERY MUCH. No one cleans the rooms, and before you can get new towels you gotta bring the old ones downstairs. It’s cheap if you need a place to sleep but this would never be a go to for me

Hotel Review: One Night Stay My recent one-night stay at this hotel was highly disappointing due to several issues that significantly impacted the overall experience. The room was in poor condition, with outdated and unattractive furniture that felt neglected. The mattress was uncomfortable, making it difficult to get a good night's sleep. The lighting was inadequate, leaving the room dimly lit and impractical for any tasks requiring clear visibility. The refrigerator barely cooled, rendering it useless for keeping food or drinks fresh. There was no bedside lamp, which was inconvenient for reading or navigating the room at night. Additionally, the room had an unpleasant odor that persisted throughout the stay. To make matters worse, I noticed small cockroaches, indicating a lack of proper cleaning and maintenance. Lastly, the absence of a coffee maker was a notable inconvenience, as I couldn't even make a simple cup of coffee in the morning. Overall, the experience was far below expectations, and I would not recommend this hotel to others.

The beds were very uncomfortable. The room was clean. There wasn't any carpet so you heard noise from the floor above. They also didn't have ice machines, only 2 empty icecube trays in the freezer. Also bring your own shampoo and blow dryer. I wouldn't go back.

This is not a clean place to stay. The smell of smoke and weed filled the hallways. I had to request a new room which wasn’t much better. This is an extended stay which isn’t advertised so you get people who live here. So all night there was kids crying adults yelling and way too much movement in the hallways. I’m not from the area and there isnt anything to do in the direct area. I needed up going to Burger King and killing 4-5 hours working in their lobby instead of being in my room.

Off the highway almost on its own. Walking distance to convenience stores and a few restaurants. Lobby has locked doors on both sides. That made me feel uneasy. But I suppose they're prioritizing guest safety. It's a 10 year old facility that's been treated rough. In need of paint and repairs. Staff at the front desk was polite, friendly and helpful. Halls have been replaced with vinyl floor. The rooms are comfortable. Nothing special or off-putting. The biggest turn off is the rampant use of marijuana by guests. You smell it the halls, the elevator, in front of rooms, outside in the parking lot
