Check in was simple and easy . When we used the elevator to get to the 3rd floor. The elevator moved a couple inches before the door of the elevator closed. As we were on the elevator, it felt unsafe. Later that evening we found out the elevator was no longer working.

This place was roach infested. Did not know until we turned on the lights and the place was full of all kinds of bugs that got into my bags. The toilet was not connected to the floor and the seat was loose. No shampoo or hair dryer. The tv did not work properly. No coffee maker. Signs of homeless living all around the place. At 3.00 am as we were hightailing it out of there a gang of kids came from the store across the street heading towards the hotel. The smell of pot also was around. Do not stay here,

The hotel was well lit.the door was sloppy loose, with a big gap to let air in.it was a big hotel, so I dont understand why everyone that stayed that night were put next to each other. lights at the head of the bed had to be unplugged, no switch for the headboard light. the bed linin was clean. the thing I really didnt like was the after we left the hotel we stopped for coffee, I thought I had a rock in my shoe.turns out it was a toenail clipping evidently had stuck to my foot off the floor before I put my socks on, not happy. burnt looking heater on the wall that should not be there, cracked caulking in the tube area tv with not one pay channel.I swear 5 mins of commercials 1 min of show.thats my honest review of this hotel thank you.

The person at the front desk was wonderful however I would not recommend staying here. Room was in serious need of updates. Bathroom ceiling was falling apart, outlets and lamps near bed did not work. Room was just gross, smelled like a bar.

This was the last place available but i would have rather slept in my car. The desk service was good although the booking for a regular room was accidentally "canceled" resulting in only being able to get a smoking room. The bathroom was filthy, there were sketchy people all over, one of them was banging on my door at 4 am. It was bad... if you have any options at all - go there instead.

NO NO NO think before you Stay here! If you need an explanation then you’ll wish you listen to me .. People live in this motel . We were on a motorcycle trip. We got there at 11 o’clock at night. There was people wandering around in the parking lot and halls . No guests spoke english the only reason we stayed there is because we are on a motorcycle trip and we were extremely tired after riding eight hours, so we took our chances . We left at 9 AM and there were folks smoking marijuana, and drinking beers throughout the property as we rode away. Think before you stay here. The room had boogers, blood, mold in the room . I wish I could Refer to photos for more information but Expedia doesn’t allow pictures

Place was advertised as "newly remodeled". Dont know how that could be.... tub took 30 minutes to drain after a shower, toilet was very loose and rocked when you say down, mattress was very lumpy and pillows were flat and one was just a hard lump. Light over the sink only worked about 1out of 10 times of trying. Although i will say the lady working in the office was very nice.

Check-in was fine but within 24 hours our toilet and sink were clogged. When I called the front desk I was told they didn't have a plunger and I had to wait until the next day. When I called the next morning and asked when someone would be showing up to fix my toilet they didn't know anything about it. Also during the last day the lights and outlets around the headboard stopped working. On a side note the fridge and microwave worked great and there was a nearby area for me to walk the dogs..

The hotel and front desk was excellent the room is very clean but has the smell of smoke when you walk into the toom even though its a non smoking room. And let me warn you this hotel back off the road behind some buildings but the area in front of the hotel on the main road is heavily ingested with jomeless people and drug dealers. Im from garner NC and came to stay with my husband whos working in charlotte for a month and leaving the hotel yesterday to get something to eat it was around 9pm i got pulled over by a cop because he said he knew what i was doing back there at a resturant that had already closed after we ate there and i ask what was I doing and he kept saying that over and over but wouldnt say he thought i was doing something with drugs my car is very nice Camaro and he assumed i was doing something with drugs. Im beginning to understand that this side of town is drug infested and homeless people so find another hotel honestly other part.of town.
