This is the 2nd time I’ve stayed at this hotel. Super clean and relatively new in Orangeburg, SC. Right off the interstate so it’s easy to access. I was in town for family business and needed a clean, quiet, reasonably priced place to stay. Tru really hits the mark, and will likely be my go-to in Orangeburg as I handle our family affairs.
This hotel is very simple and streamlined. The microwave is in the lobby or outside the elevator on each floor, not in your room.
No closets - hang your belongings on wall hooks or hangers in a nook on the wall. You can slide your luggage under the bed. Speaking of the bed, it’s on a wooden platform and I kept bonking my knee as I’d walk in the room. The rooms are small but they are very clean and new - not run-down at all. I saw one bug in the bathroom which is highly unusual.
There is no bar but breakfast comes with your stay and it’s good. It’s a buffet in the lobby: bacon or sausage, eggs, pancakes, toast, yogurt, fruit, etc. Coffee and Juice too.
Everyone working here is super-friendly and helpful. The staff is top-notch and deserves kudos.
This is not a resort or a vacation destination and isn't meant to be. But if you’re looking for a clean, safe, comfy place to stay this will fit the bill.
(One warning - avoid the Ruby Tuesday nearby. Bad food, terrible service, watered-down drinks and the decor has a fast-food glare. Just so disappointing. Orangeburg has plenty of mom-and-pop restaurants that will happily take care of you.)
