I recommend you to keep driving and pass this property by. The only bright spot in the whole place was the actual lobby where you checked in looked great. The night desk clerk was awesome she's a wonderful person, But that doesn't make up for all of the other issues that the room had. Pay a little extra and go up the road to the Holiday Inn or the motel 6. You'll be glad you did.

Late night check in was confusing. The door near the covered drive is not the door to enter and no one responded to the doorbell. I walked around the other side and was waived at by the front desk rep. She eventually opened the door for me (in her defense, it was 1:30 am). Check in was slow.

Checking in with great the lady had wonderful customer service we loved her. She's a keeper! The place looked a little sketchy we drove around to the back ot Park. As soon as we got out of the car we smelled marijuana. Walk to our room the door was open we pushed it open more the beds were not made we turned around to walk out three ladies walked into the room from behind us. We went back to the office to tell them that the room was occupied. We could tell the clerk was not sure what was going on with that room but she gave us another room. We almost canceled because of the marijuana smell and the riff Raff that was around. We realized that there were people staying there weeks at a time. No wonder they didn't serve breakfast or coffee because those people probably took advantage of that. We went to church and did our service on Friday night, came back to the room lock the door and tried to sleep. This morning we got up packed and was walking to her car as soon as we opened our hotel door we smelled marijuana again. Not a good place to stay maybe when you get all of the remodeling done you'll have better quality people staying there. The pool is a disaster it's not like it show in the picture. We will not stay there ever again sorry for the bad review but you deserve it

It was so bad we couldn’t stay the night and had to leave immediately and find another place to stay.

While the room was ok seemed clean enough and the bed was comfortable. Plenty of water pressure and hot water but the shower drain was clogged so water did not drain well from the tub. There is no breakfast offered so Expedia needs to remove that from the listing. The lobby seemed nice from the window but was unable to go inside during check in I assume due to crime the doors were locked and there was a glass bank type window to check in with the front desk. People seemed to be living at this hotel long term vs just a quick stay. People were up all hours of the night outside smoking and doing who knows what coming and going. Was noisy and the sliding glass doors to the rooms did not seem the be the most secure with just a little hardware store hinge lock added on since the primary door lock was broken. There was also the main door to the room which the primary lock did work. Seemed not to be the safest area of town. Back in the day was probably a nice hotel with the courtyard and pool area but really needs some major updates along with security to monitor and run off people coming and going all hours of the night probably dealing etc. Would not recommend due to sketchy area and folks staying there.

The property is undergoing renovations. The rooms were nice but since the roof is under construction my first room leaked a small stream through the fan vent in the bathroom. Which I figured out at 3am while it was pouring rain (which is why there was a leak). I had to go to the office in the pouring rain to get a new room key, then drive around to the new room. Both rooms were nice, just changing in the middle of the night in the rain was inconvenient. The staff was exceptionally helpful and made the actual room transfer easy. I’m not sure if I would stay there again until the renovation is finished, but the staff were great, and the rooms were clean.

The room and FRONT of hotel itself looked, on surface, much more cleaner than the Days Inn we stayed at in Virginia. The front desk employees were nice. They have to be aware of the sketchy people on the hotel property. Not worth the $100+ per night. Also be prepared to pay $100 deposit (cash is best).

Service was extremely poor. Check-in was slow and when we went to go to breakfast we were told there was none. Our booking said breakfast was included and there was a sign inside with breakfast times. There was no explanation of why this was not to be provided. The member of staff seemed agitated that we had asked/were expecting breakfast to be provided.

The room itself was a good size and cleaned to a moderate standard. The bathroom was functional, although the toilet flush buttons were slightly challenging to access because there was limited space between worktop of a toilet flush. One key thing to note is that the walls are very thin so you can hear activity in neighbouring rooms. This was very disruptive during our stay.

The area itself is also not very welcoming - people hanging around the parking lot and close to the accommodation.

The location might seem suitable for travel to/from Charlotte but given the negatives (noisy, poor service etc.) I would not recommend staying here.
