Great location!
Great location! Dog friendly. Our room was spacious (except the tiny bathroom) and I loved the decor with local theme and rich patterns and textures. The service at the front desk and bar left something to be desired but overall it was a great stay. I guess in all fairness, it was the holiday time between Christmas and NYE so nobody wants to be at work. ;-)

Love the Graduate Columbia!
We stay at the Graduate Columbia a lot and always enjoy!! It feels like home. Love the location ( close to campus and very walkable), easy parking , friendly laid back staff, the bar/small restaurant, and we always meet the nicest people there! I just wish it wasn’t so outrageously priced on football weekends! Wish there was some sort of “ frequent guest” benefit.

This was a really cute little boutique hotel that offered a fun bar area, a great vibe and sweet employees. If you’re going to be there to visit a college student it’s extremely walkable for the campus. We gave it a 3 star for not having hot water for showers, being nickeled and dimed for every little thing, and the one outlet that we had access to didn’t work.

Our experience has been on a steady decline with this hotel. Our last visit we had no hot water and had to switch rooms. In our haste to switch rooms, I left an expensive bag in advertently in the room. I called repeatedly to speak with a manager after six calls, left a message and have still not had a call back. It was our favorite hotel. I can no longer say that.
