Overall the stay was alright and served its purpose for a business trip, but the rooms could have been much cleaner. It looked like they just pushed all the carpet crumbs, dirt back underneath the desks & bathroom counter. The door slamming at all hours was also ridiculous; they have some of the heaviest room doors that slam so loudly up and down the hall as people come & go. If you must stay there it will be fine and all the staff were amazing, but they could do better.

Great stay for a concert at Carolina Theatre
Very comfortable- had breakfast via Starbucks on the premises … It was all very nice and easy access to the venue (2.5 miles). We had dinner across the street at a great Mexican restaurant which was also delicious and reasonably priced.

Mostly great, but one shortfall
The staff at this hotel were excellent. Service was quick and correct. All of the employees with whom we had contact were knowable and courteous. The location was great and the parking was easy. The beds were comfortable and well appointed. In point of fact there was only one element that tainted our stay, and given the excellence exhibited in all other area was entirely surprising. The hotel is in serious need of cleaning. The carpets are very dirty as are the public surfaces. The walls and doors are covered in various spills. There are some really bad smells both in the rooms and public areas. In closing, it seems a shame that a hotel with such good performance is brought down by a sub-standard cleaning staff.

Seemed like it was not well maintained. We had a rip in our curtains and the elevator seemed like a death trap. Bed was uncomfortable.
