| - I really liked this hotel and would stay here again. We stayed in room 434 which was on the corner and set back a little from the main hallway, so we don't have any noise complaints like I've read here.
The room/suite itself is great for a family or for someone travelling on business. There is a microwave/fridge, an office area (with a TV and couch), the bedroom, and the bathroom. If someone in your party wants to sleep and someone else wants to play on the laptop or watch TV, it's perfect for that. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom had Crabtree and Evelyn brand shampoo and conditioner.
The hotel is decorated quite nicely. The garden in the lobby is pretty amazing, it makes you feel like you're somewhere other than near the Charlotte airport! There are fountains, statues, and lots of places to sit and chill. In the evenings between 5:30-7:30 there is a manager's reception with free drinks and a few snacks like pimento cheese, pub mix, etc.
If you really like breakfast, this hotel is your place. The eggs and omelets are cooked to order on the buffet each morning. On weekends, breakfast is 7-10, weekdays it starts at 6. Along with eggs and omelets, there's grits, pancakes, French Toast, oatmeal, bacon, sausage, biscuits and gravy, and your traditional cereal and pastries. You can go through the line to get the made-to-order or just eat at the little buffet they put out. The made to order line was long but moved quickly. Our omelets were great.
The hotel is convenient to the interstates and airport, however, you will need a car to drive to get something to eat. There's an Omaha steakhouse on site and a few places deliver, but no restaurants within walking distance except a seedy little sports bar. We had a car with us so we drove to places to eat downtown and at South Park (the hotel is convenient to both).
Also, the wi-fi is not free so be prepared to pay around $10 per day. That was the only negative part about this hotel.
