Well I recently had a weekend stay at this hotel. I would say that there is nothing special about the hotel, except the fitness area. The fitness room was outstanding in my opinion, there were updated treadmills with attached LCD televisions in the aerobics area and there was a separate free weight section. The fitness area had two flat panel tv's and lots of windows and mirrors. The rest of the hotel was simply an average business hotel, with nothing to make it stand out from the crowd. Upon arriving, I noticed that there was no automatic door or person to hold the door open for persons approching the front desk with lots of bags. Check-in was not very welcoming, but the front desk clerk was accommodating. Next, the carpet, wallpaper, and drapes semed to be a little dated when compared to the updated furnishings. The room service menu was somewhat limited when compared to other hotels with restaurants. Maid service, which begins promptly at 8:00am, can be heard slamming and opening doors in the morning, so if you would like to sleep in, please be sure to put the "dnd" sign on the door. Overall, I would say the hotel is on par with a Courtyard Marriott and the 3 star rating is accurate. I would also say that this hotel would not be my first choice if I were to be in the area again for an overnight visit.

Booked for $50 on Priceline for a stay on the way home from Disney. It was a great stay. The rooms were beautiful and the bed was comfy. The cookies were great. The staff was very friendly. The bath was roomy and clean. The only issue I had was since I was traveling, it's not very convenient to the interstate. Our mapquest directions weren't very good (they didn't tell us which way to turn when taking the exit) so I recommend calling ahead of time. I would stay again.

Booked this hotel through Priceline for a one night stay--what a bargain! Check in was fast and pleasant, cookies were fresh and warm, room was clean, beds were comfortable and it was super quiet. I would stay here again in a heartbeat!

This hotel is located close to the Charlotte Airport and a complimentary shuttle runs between the two sites 24 hours a day. The shuttle also services the nearby Harris Convention Center on the hour. I had breakfast in the hotel restaurant 3 times and found the buffet to be good. There are no restaurants located within walking distance other than the restaurant in another hotel across the street. There are numerous eating places located within 2-4 miles on Tyvola Road as long as you have a car to get there with. The hotel has a pool, conference rooms and banquet facilities. The hotel is quiet even though the airport is nearby. Check in and check out was painless and efficient and the Doubletree cookie was available on check in. There is in room internet but the charge is $10 per 24 hours. There is also complimentary internet in the business center. It is a good travel hotel but for variety in eating you must have a car!
