Columbus Inn and Suites

What guests think

At Columbus Inn and Suites, travelers describe an older, renovated roadside motel offering convenient interstate access, many clean and comfortable rooms, and easy check‑in with generally friendly staff, alongside recurring reports of uneven upkeep, renovations, and closed or inconsistent amenities.

Cleanliness feedback is mixed: many stays were clean, while others noted musty odors, mold in A/C units, insects, and poorly cleaned bathrooms or floors. Several guests liked the refreshed decor, but recurring maintenance issues include wobbly toilets, TV or fridge problems, drafts, and unreliable Wi‑Fi, with noise varying by night. Location is convenient for Tryon events and highway travel, though walkability and signage are limited and the setting sits behind a gas station. Expect a budget stay with basic amenities and variable quality.

Great location right off the highway. Glad to see guests using the outdoor pool. After driving several hours and desperately needing a bathroom, I was told that the one bathroom in the lobby (accessible to everyone) was for employees only. Hotels and motels should always have a bathroom available for guests in the lobby. We had a non-smoking room, however the bathroom air vent pulled in the smoke smell from other smoking rooms. Check-in was less than ideal since the third-party booking didn’t include the tax. Almost got charged double for my room. Going to go back and check credit card statement to make sure.

Our stay was rough.. I should’ve taken more pictures.. they need to do some serious cleaning in that place & could have nice rooms like the display pictures they use for advertising.. I was pretty disappointed to walk in & immediately feel like there was mold growing somewhere. Found some rough mildew in the AC unit.. and the filter was so dirty it wasn’t getting any air.. there was very noticeable dirty light switches.. The sink was disgusting, the bathroom door & ceiling had splashes of dark colored stuff.. the shower/ tub drain seemed to be clogged & wasn’t draining well at all.. hardwood floors so you could see they didn’t even bother to sweep or mop before we arrived.. the bed was pretty comfy but only 2 small standard pillows for both queen beds..

We arrived at 9:30 pm and things seemed well. Walking in the room (211) it seemed nice and you can tell there were new renovations. The floor was redone, there was fresh paint, and new shower walls. The baseboards were not painted and rough. There were a few stink bugs in the room. The floor needed a better sweep. The bathroom was the worst! The toilet was wobbley almost an inch. When you got up it slammed down. The wall look like someone whipped chew all over it. There was dust and broken hair ties on the floor around the toilet. The ceiling in the shower has yellow drip spots. Check in and check out we're east. We didn't eat breakfast. The fridge in the room wasn't super cold. The ac worked great.

This place was unsafe for me! I could've had an asthmatic attack due to the high level of mold stink in room 117. As soon as we walked in we could smell it. We ended up telling the attendant at the front desk and checked out, could NOT stay overnight in fear of my health. Room was dirty. Do not recommend this place. I have filed a complaint and waiting for my FULL refund. We had to drive back home due to this issue.

3 reasons I give this stay an overall 2 stars. Towels were paper thin. Although they updated the rooms and nicely done, the bathroom left a lot of room for improvement. Perhaps a door stop so the knob doesn’t make holes in the plaster and fix not cover up the water damaged walls snd base trim, even the nails have rusted. And thirdly, they really need to upgrade the wi-fi. I had a hard time connecting due to weak signal and then it continuously kept knocking me off and I had to retry. I would only stay here in a pinch and not if you required internet access- just too weak and unstable.

This is an older building, but it has everything you may need. Hair dryer, iron n board, tv, microwave, very comfortable beds, and easy access and parking. Not sure about winter stays, my door would probably have a cold draft. For my needs and I’m not a fancy person just down to earth in need of a place to stay this was great.

The property was adequate, although a bit run down i.e. cracked switch plates and dirty baseboards. The room was cold and couldn't stay warmed up. There were only this coverlets on both beds and no real blankets or comforters. My parents were unable to stay the second night due to the frigid conditions. We made the decision to crowd into another space for a warm, good night's sleep.

Went with my daughter for a horse event and it had many men hanging outside on the balcony. It was being renovated so there were pallets around. We took precautions within the room to feel secure. The WiFi never worked while we were there. When I asked for assistance the person said keep trying. The top blanket had dirt on it. There were drilled holes in the bathroom that we covered during our stay - the shower curtain had brown dirt on it and the baseboards were filthy. Ac worked great. We didn’t see where the breakfast was until that last day since the guy who checked us in never told anything. He appeared disinterest just like the other front desk person. Our last night two dogs who were left in the parking lot barked at 3:30 am. We will not be returning

Positive: Comfortable room. Quiet. Would stay there again. Negative: They ran out of regular coffee which is the only kind we drink...none at the front desk. During the night, the refrigerator would emit a loud noise and had to be unplugged in order for us to sleep.

I stayed 2 night. On the first full day I was there I came back right before lunch to find my hotel room door OPEN! I know it was closed and secure when I left a little before 9am because I pushed on the door. I had several electronic devices in the room. Housekeeping had come in and took a used hand towel by the sink and emptied one of the small trash cans in the room that had maybe 3 small pieces of garbage. And my hand towel was not replaced with another clean one and the bag was not replaced in the trash can. Either housekeeping did not close my door or it was not shut all the way and came open. Either way I was very angry. I ended up putting the Do Not Disturb sign on my door after that.

Convenient off the interstate and handy for Tryon/FENCE, with nearby gas and restaurants; many found it quiet or felt safe. Downsides include limited walkability, hard‑to‑spot signage, and a setting behind a gas station, with a few sketchy comments.
