Never again. One elevator was out of service the whole time. Which caused big back up at the elevators. The room was so rundown the stick on floor tiles they stuck to the wall were all lifting and coming off. Told the front desk that the room smelled stale she said that there was new carpet. Ma’am please be so for real that carpet was older than me. There was a power outage which wasn’t their fault but there was a prom and a dance competition which led to screaming teenagers all night. Front desk was not the best when it came to the power outage. Rude
We come to NC often to visit our son and this is a nope never again.

First night was great everything was clean and comfortable. We checked out but had to stay another night we were put in different rooms. The rooms were clean bed comfortable but the tv had no streaming channel and the heat would not get over 67 degrees completely different from the first night. To be fair they were upgrading the property so this may have had something to do with it.
