What guests think

Tru by Hilton Spartanburg earns strong praise for a convenient location near the interstate, shopping, and restaurants, a lively lobby with games, and simple, functional rooms that suit short, budget-conscious stays.

Many guests highlight spotless rooms, comfortable beds, and a generally good complimentary breakfast. Recurring drawbacks include thin walls and traffic noise, compact rooms with limited seating or lighting, and the lack of in-room microwaves or coffee makers. Service is usually warm and helpful, though several mention booking or billing hiccups, occasional slow or abrupt interactions, and rare housekeeping lapses. Expect a modern, no-frills stopover with easy access to area conveniences.

Super cute lobby and overall hotel decor. A little loud from traffic on the road but not too bad.

The cleanliness qnd upkeep of the hotel is quite lacking. The public area furniture was stained and one of the two only pool sticks was broken at the tip. However the staff was verily friendly and the breakfast was good.

The room is simple, clean, and comfortable. I liked the small desk and chair in the room to work at and enjoyed their co-working space in the lobby. Good selection of snacks and drinks, and free coffee 24 hrs a day! The little Thai restaurant in the front parking lot was outstanding!

This hotel was so cool. From the pool table and giant Jenga and giant Connect Four to the comfy bed, this hotel was perfect. Loved the bath products and the breakfast. The only negative thing I can say is the design of the bed with the wooden frame around the edge was a hazard to me. I hit my leg/ knee on it twice! The lobby was designed for socializing, so if you have a group, there are lots of areas to sit and visit.

Room amenities were worse than a motel 6. The place was over run with some sort of kids sports team and they TOOK OVER EVERYTHING. lobby full of people with bags of grocery store food eating and partying like it was their own house. same for the outdoor area except they were smoking along with the party. Room was very small, one roll around chair with a "desk" the size of a small folding table. very cheap This was an $80 room not a $140 room. I will avoid this brand in the future

Overall the facility was clean and well kept. The staff was friendly and welcoming. Property was near busy area of town so the traffic noise was apparent; so it could benefit from being more insulated from that. Otherwise the room was quaint and clean.

Interesting place. Breakfast area is welcoming and comfortable, especially the sofa seating with great view of TV. Food was good for a hotel breakfast. No carpeting in the rooms certainly makes the floors easier to keep clean, but you will hear every step made above you. The room darkening shade works 100%! Set an alarm. When we arrived, after 4:00, our room had not been cleaned and made up. Never had that happen before and it was soon taken care of. No ice machine on our floor, but on the first floor, right by the elevator, there is an ice machine and a proximity sensing water dispenser. Really helpful for keeping water bottles full. The price was right, the bed was comfy.

I knew the decor would be non-traditional, but I still thought it would be quality and functional. There was only a light fixture on one side of each bed. The desk was tiny, room enough for one of the roommates at a time. Roommate meaning my husband/business partner. And, no other chair in the room. Breakfast buffet ends at 9 am, and the lights over the food line literally turned off while I was wrangling with the toaster. If the stafff needs to begin cleaning up, fine; but turn the lights out? Maybe not quite obnoxious, but certainly not welcoming. Then the cleanup gal tossed out all the remaining hard boiled eggs. So you’re in such a hurry to close down that it’s better to throw out the food than let the guest have it or save in the staff refrigerator.There is a zillion other hotels out there. We don’t need to come back to this one.

The hotel is 4 years old. Great design, good breakfast but the most uncomfortable bed I've ever slept in. Very soft, bouncy mattress with no back support at all. You fall into a hole. Wouldn't be possible to sleep on your stomach. I Woke up with a strong back and neck ache that lasted all day. This is the first time ever. Pillows are also soft, squishy and offer no neck support. The room has no microwave and no coffee maker. You have to go to the lobby for these. I would not stay there again or in any Tru hotels because they probably all have the same beds.

The blinking fire sprinkler right above the bed was nooooo good. The fridge not being in something was very loud. Yes I’m not an easy sleeper but for >$100, I should have had that in the hotel room. Also with that price, a microwave would have been nice (as the hot water downstairs was barely warm) and the continental breakfast could have been better. Why were the pancakes pink? And they were only cooked on one side. Otherwise bed and pillow were good. Shades on windows. Tv set up good. Lots of outlet options. Weird soap situation tho.

Clean, great bath, black out shades a plus. Person upstairs must have had a kid doing gymnastics. Floors w/o carpet = sound magnified. No info in rm. about tv operation. With no ice bucket that indicates no ice service. No reading lamp beside beds on the inside. Small lights above bed dim & can’t reach while in bed. I am in my mid 70’s & the ability to easily turn on a light a safety feature in an unfamiliar place.

Well lady at front desk was nice but went down hill from there. Someone else was in the room we were assigned and then they had to send us to another hotel. Least we had a place to stay but was just all and all very inconvenient. Just this whole town however is a little trashy and run down. Not impressed at all and would like a room compt for my trouble.

First issue is that they tried to charge me a second time at check in for a room we had already prepaid for before arrival. We flat out refused. Second issue is that we could hear a lot of noise, and the wall ac/heat unit did not allow constant fan. Third issue is that they deactivated my room key before I checked out, causing me to have to go to the desk and get it reactivated to get my luggage after breakfast. Fourth issue is that the lady at checkout had an attitude with me when I inquired about why they tried to charge me twice the previous night.

The hotel clerk gave our room to someone else since we arrived late. The manager assigned us to the last room available- when we went into the room a man was laying in the bed. I’m glad he didn’t shot us. After a 15 minute wait we were given a room at a nearby hotel. What a mess.

Rude front desk agent. The 3pm to 11 pm gentleman was great. But the young lady manning the desk from7am to 3pm was very nasty. I had a really bad migraine and she called the room to say that check out was at 11:00 am. I explained to her that I was a stay over and that I extended my stay through hotels.com. She said I needed to come to the desk to extend my keys and I told her that I wasn’t feeling well but I would be down to change my keys. She asked me to come down now and I said “no”. I will be down and moreover I’m not feeling well and my credit card is on file for incidentals. I can’t remember what else she said but it took everything in my being not to cuss her out. She took the customer out of customer service. The 3-11 guy was great and funny, nice, professional.
