This property is being renovated, and that is good. The bad was that the renovated room was not cleaned after the renovation, it had a lot of construction dust which blew all over when the fan was on, the toilet did not work, the tub drained very slowly, there were no pillows on the bed, and the new curtains did not close because they had been installed incorrectly. The staff was very nice and did their best to fix it all, but really, it should have been checked by management before they gave out the room. I do not mind a little glitch or 2, but I was calling the desk to fix something every time I turned around! The propery is out in the middle of nowhere and not a very nice area. I will not stay here again.

Without going into the sorrid details, the most important information I can pass along is DON"T GO HERE!!! It is in a VERY seedy area of town, there are warnings everywhere about emptying your car to deter theft, all doors to the hotel are locked during the DAYTIME, and all entrances but the main are blocked by gates at dark. They refused us more than two extra pillows and made us sign a release implying that we may steal them. ( I had a sinus infection and really could have used the extra to breathe!). There were disgusting brown stains on the upholestry in the room, stains of some kind on the shower and the sink had hair. Thankfully we were there for only one night. We woke early and ran for the hills!! Beware of this place and do not put your family at risk!

Stayed here overnight on our way to Mexico. The room was disgusting for the price we paid. No elevators. Wallpaper falling off walls. Carpet stains everywhere. We planned on leaving our car at the "sleep & fly" bonus. We upgraded our room for $10.00 thinking that parking at the hotel would be worth it. We went into Charlotte and had a great time. Came back to the hotel and went to the grocery store next store. The security guard told my husband that we should not leave anything in our car because they will break in your car just for change. He told him that it's a really bad neighborhood. We took everything out of our car. We eventually ended up parking at Charlotte airport - which ended up being only $3.00 a day and very secure.

We booked three rooms for two nights through hotels.com. It ended up that we arrived early and stayed an extra night paying CI & S's nightly rate. When paying for this additional night a person in our party had trouble with their credit card and it was 'denied' so he paid with a different card. Once we were in our rooms he called the credit card company and the card company could see the hotel transaction--it seemed as if he had been charged the rate on two cards. When he went to the front desk to resolve this problem the girl at the counter REFUSED and was horribly rude to help him with this. She said she didnt charge his card and 'if you dont like it there's the door'. The next morning he called the card company back and the transaction had apparently been deleted overnight b/c the charge was gone--thankfully. However, my friend and I went to tell the General Manager about our treatment---we thought he'd want to know how unprofessional and rude she was. WRONG. He was no better. He did reluctantly apologize but in the next breath he told us we shouldnt even be there b/c we used expedia (we used hotels.com).

The cleaning staff was very nice and there were others you could tell wanted to say something but bit their toungue b/c they needed a paycheck.

The rooms were okay but if you have a problem they are NOT going to help you!!

Overall, I would not recommend this hotel.
