It seems to me that the owners of this property are just waiting until the time comes to knock the building down. The property next door was recently demolished.

This hotel (more like a motel, really, with room access from outside) is cheap and in a great location (walk to downtown no problem), but it's sorely in need of maintenance. I also agree that there is a mold or other air-quality related issue. My room was musty at best, and there were some other regrettable odors, too.

In all candor, I opted not to sleep in the bed. If I had tongs, I would have used them instead of my fingers to remove the bedspread (which had stains aplenty). I then slept in my clothes on top of the bed. I then seriously considered burning the clothes when I returned home.

My guess is that most guests don't have a car with them, but know this if you have a vehicle in Charlotte. This property rents most of its spaces to monthly parkers, so if you get there with your car before 5PM, you might have trouble finding a space until the commuters begin to go home. I got there at 4:15PM, and there was only one space available. In addition, parking costs $6. Some people think that's ridiculous to have to pay for parking, but I've certainly paid for parking at other hotels.

This is by far the worst place I have ever stayed in my entire life. The hotel was disgusting, dirty and outdated. Only one of the lights in my room worked, and I felt the need to wear flip flops in the shower
I chose this hotel because it was close to downtown, and I had to attend a function there early in the morning.
We spent over $100 for this room, and at that price, you would expect something decent. This place was FAR from it.
I would not recommend it to anyone. Do some additional research and stay somewhere else.

You can't beat this hotel for price and convenience, however...we stayed just one night and both woke up with major sinus problems! The congestion/pressure/headache is incredible. Now, I can't prove it was the room, but we went to bed feeling fine. We had difficulty getting the room to a comfortable temperature and ran the air all night---I don't know if there is a mold issue or what, but something in the room/air/environment made us sick.
Otherwise, the room was moderately clean, if rather shabby.

The price makes it hard to complain.

We went to Charlotte to see the Panthers play, so we wanted a Hotel that is convenient to the Stadium. Convenient it is, but that is about all. Everything in the rooms is old, including the paint on the walls, but it was clean. I think the price we paid for that room was insane, but hey, it was the cheapest at that location

The broken electrical outlets in room should be repaired. Door between rooms should be replaced. I can't believe door between my room was being held up by sheetrock screws, poor security. Mold all over bathroom shower curtain. Who caulked in bathroom? Very bad job. Paint flaking off ceiling. I'm on the road over 80 days a year and this is the worst maintained room I've ever seen. (Oh, maid service was fine.) Service was friendly, but room, was really bad. Lobby smelled bad of stale cigarrette smoke.
