I don't like hotels, but I don't have friends in every city. I stayed here for a conference. Getting into the hotel parking lot is not that easy. Also, the parking for the hotel is costly and there is no garage. That's always annoying. The hotel was recently renovated. It's connected with the Le Meridian via the lobby. Overall, the rooms were hotel standard clean. Plenty of elevators. They have a nice bar and restaurant inside. The rooms were spacious too. Staff was nice and very accommodating. All of the meeting spaces were nice. The event staff for our conference gala were very nice. I'd possibly stay again. The hotel is very close to Uptown Charlotte and a few shopping venues and restaurants.
