Now don't get me wrong, I agreed to it otherwise I would have been sleeping in my car or driving 30 mins ea way from Jefferson City. But it's kind of like pricing gas at $10 / gal when there's a hurricane. So past that it was all good. My room was massive - almost to the point of "what's the point of having all this space?" Separate living / entertaining room and about a 30 x 20 bedroom and huge bathroom. Jacuzzi tub, separate shower, auto blinds and a few other perks. Location is great as is Glen's Cafe (fabulous wine list) and all the bars inside. Room service was prompt and delicious. Reminds me a bit of McMenamins Bar/Hotels around Portland, OR. I did valet car because $25/day is a steal compared to any other hotel I've stayed and parking around the area is very challenging. I would definitely stay again minus the ridiculous cost.

Our room was clean and comfortable. We LOVED Love Coffee in the lobby area and enjoyed their lattes each morning during our stay. Glenn's Cafe (est. 1028!) served excellent food and their wait staff was outstanding. The standout for us was Twain - a speakeasy bar in the lower level of The Tiger. Great BBQ food - all local to Missouri - great ambiance and wonderful beer or cocktails. The staff here was so helpful and couteous. We enjoyed the leather backed chairs and a cocktail as we looked out the large windows to the streets of Columbia outside. A good night! Only criticism/suggestion: housekeeping in the public (specifially elevator areas on floor 2) could be substantially improved.

The reception was pleasant and very helpful. Our room was cleaned to perfection and smelled amazing. I typically wear shower shoes in the shower but it was so sparkling clean I didn't even feel the need. The comfort level of the bed & pillows was OK but I'm just happy they were clean & fresh. Waking up for breakfast there were a ton of options which I appreciate. The potatoes and eggs were seasoned very well. They had every condiment and beverage you could think of. Leaving out we were thanked by the new receptionist and left with the wonderful smell of Hawaiian breeze coming from the lobby. They have a huge inviting pool. Not sure if they have a workout room but I would definitely recommend and would stay again.

Came here after being in KC and heading back to STL. This wasn't the hotel I wanted to stay in but…read moreit was my bad for not booking the other hotel (also a Drury Inn) thinking it would get less expensive the closer the day got and it did not. Spent less than 12 hours at this hotel. Plenty of parking. Depending what room you are in you may have to move your car. I parked near the entrance for check in and ended up moving the car to be closer to the room. Check in was easy. Front desk staff was nice and friendly. Smelled popcorn but we had missed the kick back and they had popcorn and sodas in the lobby. Got a room on the 2nd floor. Dropped off stuff in room and headed to the pool. Pool is indoors so it was pretty loud but found a table to sit at while kidlet swam. Also had a hot tub. It was pretty busy in there. After the pool headed out to get food. Lots of fast food restaurants in the area (McDonald's and Culver's are where we ended up). Room was cozy with a large bathroom (compared to the Pear Tree in we had stayed at on this trip). Room was clean, AC got nice and cool. Called front desk to find out where laundry room was. Sent kidlet to front desk to get quarters and headed to the 4th floor to start laundry. Did laundry, ate dinner, had showers and watched food network till bed time. Curtains let in a fair amount of light but had a sleep mask. Slept good. Woke up next morning hit up breakfast, checked out and made our way to STL. Elevator was out the morning of our check in but we were on 2nd floor so it didn't affect us as much as those on the upper floors having to bring their luggage down. Had a pleasant stay and would stay again if in the area.

I liked it! Making a reservation was super easy through the Hilton main Phone number. I was able to…read morecheck in via my phone and the Hilton App. And, the door key was on my phone with the app. So no need to go to the front desk upon arrival. Note: you can share the key but that other person must have the app and be a Hilton member. The room was very clean and the maid service checked after one night to see if we needed anything since we were staying two nights. The pool is a little small but we were more interested in the hot tub. The exercise room was used quite extensively by several people. We were tired after our long drive so we decided to stay in and eat at the hotel. My burger was good and my SO's pasta was also of good quality. Prices were very reasonable so we had adult beverages also created to perfection. Nice experience nice stay the only drawback was the thin walls that made every knock and shower by other visitors a bother. Other than that we enjoyed our stay and would consider them again if we were in town.

I stay at a lot of Hilton properties - Hamptons, Homewood, Garden Inn, etc. This one is fairly…read morecookie cutter and I thought quite good. It's the Garden Inn with a little snack shop, bar and restaurant inside which is convenient. I started checking in via digital key so can't comment on staff, wait time, etc. But it was a busy football weekend at Mizzou so hotel was completely booked. But it didn't feel that way, and it was easy to navigate, park, get bar service, etc. The room was very clean and fairly standard as well. Bed fairly comfy, large TV and newish bathroom. The only downsides (which are both pet peeves), the faint smell of mildew, and they use a water softener so I always left my shower feeling slimy. The hotel is on the north side of 70 but an easy 5 min drive to downtown or campus. And it's typically much lower cost vs hotels closer to town. Overall I would recommend.

A perfectly acceptable hotel…read more My room wasn't spectacular, but it was clean and the bed was comfortable. A continental breakfast is served every morning. A fitness center and a pool are available, however I didn't use them. The parking lot is a little small and can fill up quickly. A bit off subject - the hotel is near some other hotels that aren't near anything else. It's not a huge deal because Columbia isn't that big. You should be able to reach anywhere you want to go in roughly fifteen minutes.

Not the worst stay, but definitely could've been better…read more While the hotel appears to have been recently renovated, they seem to have done a half ass job at that.. I stayed in room 322 and parts of the wall was gone, wallpaper coming off, bathroom stains. Our toilet bowl had a ring in it... it was disgusting. Cleanliness aspect was definitely not met. We stopped here for a night during a cross country road trip so we just made do with it. The only good thing was that the bed was comfortable and staff was pretty friendly. I feel like that's part of the bare minimum though. Would not revisit or recommend, subpar for Marriott quality.

I had to fly in from Florida and other family came in from out of town as well. It was a Friday night and there was a Mizzou home game on Saturday so hotel rooms were scarce and ridiculously expensive. I called and spoke with the folks at the front desk. They were so kind and were able to get us into a couple of rooms. The rooms are a pretty tired and the particular room I was in the drawers on the dresser wouldn't stay closed. Also, the pillows were pretty thin and too soft (kinda like sleeping on crepe paper). We didn't care, we just needed a place to crash. I would definitely stay here again because the team clearly cares about their guests.

This is a nice, quiet place that had a good rate and wasn't unbearably far from downtown. The only…read moreissues I had were housekeeping related. If you stay here for a visit you'll definitely need a rental car or some way of getting around as there isn't a whole lot near by, and it's even surprisingly farther from the airport than I was expecting, too. You'll get a nice room though at not too bad of a price (at least when I stayed). The room was clean for the most part, although there were one or two odd housekeeping issues ranging from tough to spot (an odd red streak stuck to the bathroom door around eye level) to easy to spot (popcorn from the previous guest still on the floor when I got in). The kitchen in the suite is a nice size for a small hotel room, and if you don't have the time or desire to head out for meals while there, there's a Walmart a few miles from the hotel where you could pick up groceries to cook up in the hotel room if you wanted. The breakfast in the morning also seemed better stocked than other Marriott properties I've been to - the only complaint there was that it didn't open super early. I wouldn't mention it anywhere else but Columbia Airport has a few super early flights as their morning rush, and if I wanted to stick around for the start of breakfast the day of my flight I might not have had enough time to get back to the airport. Overall a nice place to stay if you've got some way to get around.

Beautiful new property. The desk clerk was super friendly and perky. The place still smells new…read more When we got to our room I didn't realize we had a 1 bedroom suite. It was huge. Kitchen was fully stocked with everything but food. Living room had a desk, tv and couch. Big bathroom with a huge shower. The bedroom was bigger then our own master bedroom. You really could live here. All the furniture looked similar to IKEA stuff and the closet had an Elfa closet system. I really felt like we were the first to ever use this room till I started using the coffee pot. The coffee pack from the previous guest was still in the top. Breakfast was pretty good but scrambled eggs would have made it better. I also heard staff concerns about spoiled milk in the fridge. Attention to detail is everything in the hotel industry. The pool is outside, not sure why in Missouri you would do that with a brand new build.
