"The condo is nice and in a great location. However, there was no internet for our entire stay. The host was non-responsive and was aware of the issue before our checkin. There are other reviews that had the same problems. Without internet, there was no tv either. There was not good service so our hot spots did not really work. Also, there is not a parking permit. They send instructions to park in the condo complex lot, but there are signs that say a permit is required and you will be towed. The...

Top Columbus Hotel Reviews

Courtyard Columbus

10/10 Excellent

"Hot tub was cold only issue."

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Columbus MS

6/10 Okay

"The air conditioner had a moldy smell that made the entire room unpleasant during our stay. Also, I genuinely do not understand why La Quinta uses incredibly small pillows on their beds. Each bed had three tiny square pillows that weren’t even standard size, much less appropriate for a queen bed. Why are hotels doing this now? It feels like comfort and convenience for travelers are being sacrificed to cut costs. Guests shouldn’t have to travel with their own pillows just to get a decent night’s sleep. For that reason alone, I will not be staying at La Quinta Inn again."
