What People Say

Guests praise the inn’s charming atmosphere, peaceful setting, and friendly hospitality. Many mention the great location—close to concert venues yet quiet enough for a good night’s sleep. The clean, spacious rooms and character-rich decor stand out in reviews, making it feel like a true home away from home.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests have noted that the inn’s historic charm comes with a few quirks, like older plumbing or limited modern amenities compared to chain hotels. There’s no 24/7 front desk, so plan your check-in accordingly. Also, the lack of an on-site restaurant means dining requires a short walk or drive.

The Bottom Line

The 1425 Inn is a cozy, character-filled choice for concert-goers who want a quiet, comfortable stay close to Columbia’s music venues without sacrificing charm or convenience.
