David's Cool Mom
College Visit
The place looked like it needed a good cleaning. It was not a bad place, I guess it's just wear and tear from extended use. The bed was hard. The room needed some additional cleaning- it look like blood on the curtain;the bathroom door handle was broke;the door to our room only shut if you slammed it. For the money it was ok.

Steeler in Panther Land
Ok, but will not stay again.
The staff was very pleasant. Only good things to say about Jose' but the overall accomendations needs tremendous improvements. Summary: Houscleaning: Not available unless your staying 7 days (ridiculous!). Room: Ok, if you like burning up during the summer months, they are cheap with supplying cool rooms. Traveler beware!!!! take your hard earned money to another establishment if you want service...or simply call the hotel and ask plenty of questions before you book with them.

Go uptown to the financial district of Charlotte, NC...near the Panthers Stadium...At night, it is truly beautiful. You won't be disappointed...and you won't empty the wallet.

Grandma in waiting
First floor was under renovations was not aware before making reservations otherwise I would have gone to another hotel. Paint smell came up thru rooms, could not use exersize room nor laundry room until the 2nd day there due to renovations.Perhaps if It was a week or two later then I would not have encountered this problem. WISH I KNEW The staff was GREAT!!!!

Great overall experience
The hotel is very nice and in a very nice location. Only problem I had was I booked the hotel and when I checked in they swiped my credit card and charged me again. The next day my problem was taken care of right away by a very helpful staff. I would definitely stay here again on my next trip back to Charlotte.
