Most of the hotels in Orangeburg are near I-26, about 5 miles from the center of town. Most travelers probably opt to stay there, as they are probably just passing through. Just my luck to arrive late on a Saturday night during football season. All of the decent rooms near the interstate were taken. I ventured toward the town center, expecting to stay in a dive but lucked upon a sparkling new hotel.
This property is, as they say, nothing to write home about but it was a great alternative to the older chain buildings by I-26. I would have stopped here first if I knew; I came into town on SR21 from the south. The property appeared clean and new. My room was spacious and immaculate. I stayed in the separate building which was supposed to be completely non-smoking. Of course, at 7 in the morning, some clown was smoking his cigar with a dog in the room.
