Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Columbia Downtown
Not too happy. The maid service never showed up on Saturday. I left my room at 10am and got back at 3pm no service. I also am very disappointed I had to pay for parking. In everything I read it said self park. Self park does not mean $10 a night! Overall ok but very disappointed.
