Wingate by Wyndham Columbia

I came to Columbia on a week that had a sporting event happening so I had to take this hotel instead of my normal Hilton properties. The ladies a check and were nice. There’s a terrifying ginger wizard mascot that is life-​size cardboard cutout when you come in the front door it was almost enough to make me turn around and walk out.
My room overall seemed OK and tidy. With up-​to-​date décor. However, there was a pretty gross looking stain on the cover for the boxspring which easily could’ve been taken off and washed I’m assuming it was probably vomit. Stay was OK throughout the evening however I had to kill a cockroach in the bathroom before I could take a shower. I would’ve voice these concerns in person however the gentleman at the front desk didn’t bother to ask how my stay was when I checked out. At the price point they requested ($ 189/​night) I don’t think that these things should’ve been overlooked. I definitely won’t be coming back. I give the second star only because in general the place is clean looking and the people seemed quite nice

Very nice remodel of the rooms. However, when they say it’s a suite with 2 rooms, Don’t Buy It! What they really mean is 2 areas.
We get 2 rooms for when our kids go to bed early. Doesn’t work here, the TV is bright and seen from both the living/​kitchen area and from the beds.
Falsely advertising that it’s 2 rooms!

Loved my recently remodeled room — very contemporary and modern. Clean hotel, good variety at breakfast. This is now my preferred place to stay in Columbia.

I’m glad the review before me said after the remodel there was no problem. I got a great deal online after mainly choosing it for the indoor pool and Jacuzzi. The room was nice and clean as was the lobby and breakfast area. I would say to just disregard some of the older reviews. They must’ve really cleaned up their act after the fact.

Recently remodeled. Clean, didn’t smell musty or of old smoking rooms. Not sure what the cost of a room is, as we use our Wyndham rewards card to get points for free rooms, but we are almost always very pleased with the Wingate hotels we stay in across the country when traveling.
This one is a great location to the things we like to do in Columbia. Very good location to Mizzou campus, Downtown, and right off the highway.
No problems checking in, and I asked for a late check out for the next day and that was not a problem at all. They were very accommodating to that request.
Husband used the hot tub and pool and was pleased. I believe he said they closed at midnight, which is much later than a lot of hotel pools, so that was a nice bonus.
The only issue with the room that we had, was the thermostat, and that it didn’t seem to be the actual temperature that it was reading but we just did some adjusting and it was all good.
Small refrigerator and also a microwave to reheat our Shakespears pizza for a late night snack. :)
Good hot breakfast in the morning downstairs. biscuit’s and gravy was really good, Belgian waffles, fruit, cereal, breads, (no doughnuts or pastries surprisingly) good coffee and a couple of juices to choose from.

We will definitely be staying here on our next trip to COMO…

Buyer beware!!! I tried to use my voucher for $ 300 for this hotel and they absolutely refused to accept it. I will never stay here again. I spent 45 min on the phone with Windham «customer care» and got no positive resolution. My $ 300 voucher is valueless… zero stars

I cannot believe I paid $ 160/​night to stay here. I know, prices skyrocket on football weekends, but for what this place is charging, and what we got, this is just ludicrous.
Pros: Hot breakfast (eggs, biscuits & gravy, bacon, etc.), plenty of parking, free wifi (though poor quality), easy to access Downtown, campus, and the highway. Really, the access was the shining quality of this place, and the reason for the second star.
Cons: Dirty (one of the beds in one room featured stained sheets and errant hairs), lack of housekeeping (one room didn’t get made up at all), mini pillows (throw pillow-​style squares), pour (but free) wifi.
Overall, I just felt skeeved out by this place. It was the first time I’d stayed at a Wyndham, and it might be the last. I’d much rather pay a bit more and stay at the Hampton Inn.

The staff was super helpful and nice. Our kids had a great time in the pool. The rooms were nice and well kept.

Summer stopover for one night in Como. Picked this place for the indoor pool. Two weeks into summer … pool is closed for renovations. No apologies. No discount. Tough luck. Staff was not equipped to handle disappointed customers. Lame.
As we pulled in, three Columbia cops had the pull-​up checkin blocked. Apparently some parents for a nearby softball /​baseball tourney got a bit out of hand. I like to think they were just trying to protect us from an awful experience. ;)

Easily the best reasonably hotel in Columbia, MO. Staff wasn’t exceptional in any way but not bad at any one thing either. Rooms were big, clean, comfortable, and equipped with all necessary amenities. Internet didn’t seem to work from my room, but hey, no ones perfect.

Thoroughly mediocre.
The facility is okay, it’s a fairly new building, and the rooms are big, and the noise damping is good.
The staff are not.
Couldn’t get a light bulb replaced, came back one day at 6 pm to find that housekeeping were finally cleaning, not that they did any cleaning. There were stains in the toilet, and this is the only US hotel I’ve ever stayed in that didn’t provide a spare roll of toilet paper. The poor breakfast (about average for this sort of place) was made worse by staff that couldn’t make coffee or keep the milk stocked.
There are a whole bunch of similarly priced places right nearby. They can’t be any worse…

Helpful, friendly desk clerk. Spacious clean room, with a jacuzzi tub, amazing shower head. Pool & hot tub are nice. Most importantly I did not hear my neighbors!
