Rude staff. Called to reschedule my stay, the person asked me everything I had just told her, including when my stay was. When I told her she laughed and said there’s no refunds or rescheduling. As if I hadn’t started my call with the date I was suppose to check in.

In short, this was a place to sleep. Aspects of this felt like being at 2 star hotel, while other bits one can definitely find nicer 3 stars. * The bushes and grass hadn't been maintained in quite a bit. * The carpet in the hallway, especially near the back entrances, were visibly dirty * Check in didnt take long, but did not feel welcoming. Basically was handed my key and that was about it. The amount of space was sufficient, but there was nothing welcoming about it. The curtains had a noticable tear. The check out process was a little warmer than check in. I had originally planned a second stay because i was going to be in Charlotte twice in October, but that changed within the first night of staying.

We paid for breakfast but the hotel staff, at check in, said there was no breakfast offered. We got breakfast in the morning and when checking out were advised their breakfast was a cup of coffee and a few items from a cart. We had already eaten since we were told there was no breakfast. The offering was worth less the $2 anyway, so having paid $17 for 2 of us was extremely overpriced and misleading. I will be requesting a refund of the breakfast cost

The only good thing I can say about this place was the bed. Other than that, it was not a good place to stay even for a night. We had a cockroach scurry across the desk while eating. The curtains also had this big brown stain on them. The pull out mattress had stains as well. The lady who checked us in was rude too.

I love the area, it's close to campus but not too close to be crowded. There's excellent shopping and both fast food and restaurants within walking distance or a short 1/4 mile drive. Those are walkable too, but would not suggest crossing the highway in front; the drivers are not attentive and do not break for pedestrians crossing at the lights let alone trying to jaywalk. My only complaint is that the TV was an older model that had poor reception and quality. If you did get a station to come in, it was extremely pixilated. There were only 4 that would come on and only one that stayed on. Was glad I went to the book store before settling for the evening.
