I tried two local hotels while I was in Columbus, GA. One a Hilton property and one a Marriott property. However, this hotel was far superior in service, quality of rooms, customer service, amenities, and their hot breakfast. Very easily 10/5 stars. I highly recommend, and I will be back next time I’m in Columbus, GA.
