Courtyard by Marriott Columbia Downtown at USC
Great location, easy to get to USC campus. Staff were friendly and helpful. Property and room was clean and comfortable. Parking $10 per day but you could come and go - there were spaces but a little tricky to get in and out of if you have anything larger than a sedan. Overall great stay!
