Top hotels in Lake Carolina
Hilton Garden Inn Columbia/Harbison
Property was nice and clean. Restaurant was expensive with ok food. Room was very clean and had everything you need. The bed was a lot firmer than I am used to, but that’s my opinion.

Sleep Inn Columbia
Overall stay was good. Front desk and staff were nice folks. Hotel is outdated but kept well. Breakfast is fair but appreciated given the affordability of the stay. The only thing that was dissapointed was the toilet not flushing well.. Otherwise, this hotel is decent.
