Great location!
Great location! Dog friendly. Our room was spacious (except the tiny bathroom) and I loved the decor with local theme and rich patterns and textures. The service at the front desk and bar left something to be desired but overall it was a great stay. I guess in all fairness, it was the holiday time between Christmas and NYE so nobody wants to be at work. ;-)

Love the Graduate Columbia!
We stay at the Graduate Columbia a lot and always enjoy!! It feels like home. Love the location ( close to campus and very walkable), easy parking , friendly laid back staff, the bar/small restaurant, and we always meet the nicest people there! I just wish it wasn’t so outrageously priced on football weekends! Wish there was some sort of “ frequent guest” benefit.

No breakfast, even thou the site said it did. When we inquired, we were told the site is ran from a third party. Do not trust. Also, keep in mind there will be a $300 extra charge (refundable) for incidentals. The “bar” will tell you that they are out of many things (food/drinks).

Will be back!
Excellent service from the moment I walked in the door. Went to the trophy room for dinner (with my dog!) and was welcomed and felt very relaxed as we sat at the bar and had a delicous smash burger and fries. Was so happy I could bring my dog with me, vs having to leave him in the room.

Lovely stay in quirky hotel
The Graduate is a lovely property right by USC. The decor is very quirky and makes you feel like you have walked into a mix of a dorm and a dolls house. The room was spacious and very clean. The bath/shower was a bit tired, which was a little disappointing, as the rest of the bathroom and the bedroom looked fairly new. The bed was incredibly comfortable. Overall, it was great value, very pleasant, in an unbeatable location and, quite possibly, the best place to stay in Columbia, so I would come back!
