Knights Inn Columbia,

1803 Bush River Road, Columbia, SC 29210

"Needed a place to stay the night before an event in town I was going to in the morning. The staff was great, and the location was good (parking lot had decent space and the inn was a few minutes from my destination). I do have some comments about the room, though. Despite being a non-smoking room, my room still smelled like cigarettes, however that’s more on the clientele following rules rather than on management. Something of note about the room itself was that the latch lock was not secure (the face of the doorframe it was attached to was broken) but this is somewhat made up for by the deadbolt (which felt pretty sturdy). All in all, I had a decent experience. Slept well, liked the management, and the room served its purpose. If you’re in town and need a last minute place to rest for the night, this Inn is a good value for your money."

"Genuinely horrific that this place is allowed to be in business. In the room we discovered old animal feces, a broken crack pipe, roaches and general filth. My husband and I checked out within an hour and they refused to refund us, due to a “no refund past 15 min” policy that they did not make us aware of. I even told them I would accept a partial refund and they also refused that as well. They offered us a different room but I was so disgusted with the state of the property I was not open to that option. I have never written a negative review in my life because I’m not one to blast a business publicly but this was truly reprehensible. Y’all be safe and shell out the extra $30 to stay somewhere that values health codes."

"Fairly nice place for the price. Office management is always polite to me. Quiet area, friendly neighbor guests. Btw the only hotel with an affordable pet fee. I think small pets should be $10 extra fee and med to large pets $25. All in all , not a bad place when you need a place for an affordable price!"

"The first night I was here I was kept up past 4am by all the noise outside and the room next door. The second night police and ambulances were called. The room was run down and pretty gross, I didn't want to use the shower and the bathroom door didn't lock. It was only 60 dollars a night though so use your own judgement."

"This place was creepy from the moment we walked in the room… My fiancé and I stayed and quickly felt the wooden floors that were soaked. The “smoking” room that was the only room they had available was connected to another room…. The door while locked appeared to be easily opened with slight force from the other side. We moved the mini fridge in front of the door and quickly learned why the sign in the lobby that read “No refunds after 15 minutes.” Made sense as we watched a roach crawl up the wall. After squishing the little insect with my shoe we grabbed the table and moved in front of the mini fridge just in case. As I grabbed one side of the table it was apparent that the nicotine had built up and it was the reason for the stickiness. The stain on the wall behind the table showed that the staff cleans however not very well. We watched another roach crawl up the wall and held each other until we fell asleep. Plus side is that the toilet flushed. They should shut this place down!!!!"
