We really like staying at this property and have been doing so for the last 4 years. It is tucked away behind a gas station on a pretty busy main street. The rooms are surprisingly quiet for it's location. There is easy walking access to several chain restaurants (Denny's & Waffle House are across the street) and fast food establishments. A short drive takes you to the interstate and downtown Charlotte - heading north takes you to Lowe's Speedway and *lots* of other activities and shopping.

Remember - this is Tobacco Country - so smoking is still allowed - a ground floor room is best

The hotel was clean and the rate was fair. The complimentary breakfast has fruit, bread (for toasting), bagels, fresh waffles (self-made), hard-boiled eggs, instant oatmeal, cereals and of course coffee, tea, juice and milk. We arrived in the evening and left early in the morning so I cannot comment on the neighborhood.

Outdoor pool was nice and clean, staff was excellent, free continental breakfast with waffles was a nice change. Close to downtown Charlotte and the interstate. No complaints will stay again if in the area.

My wife and I stayed for one night as we attended the National Association of Free Will Baptists annual conference in Charlotte, NC. The lobby of the hotel looked in really nice condition and the hotel was clean. The room was very simple and very small, just large enough for a queen bed and not much more. The hotel still uses the old box-style TVs in the room, so no HD. The room and hotel is equipped with wireless wi-fi and an extremely small desk to utilize. The continental breakfast was ok with offerings such as cereal, Belgian waffles, hard boiled eggs, toast, English muffins, coffee, milk, and juice. The housekeeping staff seemed to be working very hard, and the front desk clerk named David did fine. There is a nice outdoor pool, but we didn't use it. All-in-all, a simple and quick one night stay. If you need space, upgrade to a suite as this room is cramped with only two people.
