Beds were a little too high, but comfortable. Pillows were wonderful! The tub was a little slippery and realky could use some handles for getting in and out.

Tru By Hilton Columbia Downtown
The Tru brand is not to my liking. Small rooms with no carpeting or closets or drawers with a tiny workspace. That said this property is well run and maintained. Parking fees are extra and charged by a third party.
