| - We stayed here two nights during spring break, first night being Easter. The location was excellent. It was pretty easy to get find and get to, although, being Easter Sunday evening certainly helped! We had planned to valet park, but the desk attendant said self park would be very easy at that time (and it was! saved a few bucks). Outside the room, the halls, elevators and lobby were very nice looking and elegant. Our room was pretty standard. Not large, not small, pretty clean and comfortable. The beds were very comfortable with lots of pillows and puffy blankets. We were on the 12th floor, overlooking the light rail and Epicentre area. You had to really try to hear the trains, it wasn't an issue at all. There was a nice little shop in the lobby for snacks and stuff you forgot to pack.
We found the hotel to be super convenient for walking around downtown (er, Uptown?). With two adults, a kindergartner, and a 2 year old, we had no trouble getting up and down College and Tryon to get to museums and restaurants and just walking around to sightsee. The area around the hotel was super clean and safe feeling and the whole place seemed well policed.
We did not try the restaurant or the YMCA fitness area. The fitness area looked way crowded when I walked by Monday afternoon.
I would gladly stay here on a future Charlotte visit!
