Unacceptable conditions!
We didnt even stay at the property. Upon walking in, there was a musty smell to the whole property. Everything was run down, outdated and appeared unkept. Our room was filthy. The first thing we did was turn down the bed spread to find what appeared to be bed bugs, long hairs and possibly dried blood stains. Completely unacceptable!! We immediately went back to the front desk, where the young man working was apologetic, saying he refunded my stay and said he would address with housekeeping but still…gross! I have yet to see my promised refund post.

Property is very worn and lacks TLC, below standard; mold in bathrooms, carpet worn, sheets are sub-par super thin and not inviting hole in wall behind door, lots of clearance between door and door frame permitting noise from hallway to be very audible. Very noisy on side facing street. You get what you pay for ... cheap good enough for a couple hours sleep and go. Owners should walk through each room and assess the deficiencies.

AVOID - The carpet hasn’t been vacuumed, dirty used washcloths left in the bathroom from previous people, the TP holder that had been torn off the wall, refrigerator that flat out didn’t work, there was only a transparent roll down shade on the window that didn’t block any light, especially from the double street lamp outside. Unfriendly hotel staff and otherwise fairly dilapidated hotel. The pictures must’ve been taken after it had been remodeled, but there’s been no upkeep since. It’s an unpolished turd.

Trying to find a hotel in Columbia for under $125 gave us only one option. There were bags of trash in the hallway, barely enough towels, lights didn’t work, water damage on the ceiling & wall, fixtures pulling out of the drywall & the “breakfast” area in the lobby was disgusting. Lesson learned. Spend the extra money & stay on the nice side of the railroad tracks.

Housekeeping is near non-existent. Carpets stained and dirty. Bathrooms unsanitary. Ground floor windows allow for people to see in, no privacy. Door locks extremely sketchy. Blood spots on sheets. Hallways smelled of weed. Front desk more concerned with her cell phone than helping or fulfilling requests. The bathroom was absolutely disgusting.

The location is great. The rooms are nothing like pictured. Parking there and staying there felt unsafe. There were old mattresses stacked up behind the building which made it seem like maybe there was a pest control issue that led to removing all the mattresses. The blinds were broken, the room was dark. a hole had been made in the wall and a very poor patch job done. The mini fridge was dirty as was the carpet. The staff seemed very unorganized and confused. This was a very disappointing stay.

Worst hotel ever!!
This hotel was horrible. At check in, we were given 2 rooms that had not been cleaned. The 3rd room had what appeared to be blood splattered on the ceiling, walls and curtains. Hotel workers did not care about the issues we had. I would never recommend this hotel to anyone.

DO NOT STAY HERE! I reserved at the Gallus Stadium Hotel for a USC football weekend. The location was very close to the stadium and the price seemed reasonable compared to other hotels for a busy weekend. Other ratings seemed decent. While our expectations were low, the Gallus turned out to be the lowest of the low (I would award zero stars if it was an option). When checking in, the lobby was cluttered and messy. The parking lot had a lot of trash and debris, along with faded plastic flowers. A sign was posted with a number to call to check in. The front desk clerk (who was also cleaning rooms) came right away, assigned a room that was ready. That room smelled like smoke. I summoned the front desk again, another person responded and got me a room that didn’t smell. The view out the window showed the other, even messier side of the parking lot. We discovered the in-room refrigerator wasn’t working, reported it to the front desk, and it was never corrected (so we wasted food as a result). The safety latch on the door from the room to the hallway had one of two metal supports missing and probably wouldn’t have done the job if needed in an intruder situation. The entrance from the lobby to the 1st floor hallway was gross, with the door to the laundry room open, showing damaged walls and floors. We had to ask for fresh towels twice on the second day of our stay. Finally, and beyond the hotel’s control, the use of weed by guests smelled up the entire hotel.
