A new apartment-style hotel is now open in Columbia.

The 75 room stayAPT Suites, located at 851 Columbiana Drive in Irmo, is the Matthews, NC-headquartered company’s latest SC property. Hotels in Greer and Greenville opened last year.

The suites average 500 square feet and include a full-size kitchen, an open-concept living room and a separate bedroom with a king bed or two queen-sized beds.

“We are excited to bring our unique hotel concept to Columbia,” Gary A. DeLapp, stayAPT Suites president, said in a news release. “This area has much to offer both its residents and guests, from a vibrant culture to its diverse and thriving business community. We look forward to providing Columbia travelers with an all-around better hotel experience.”

The company is on track to open 20 hotels by the end of 2022 with another 15 in development, according to the release
