I may have the perfect motel for you if you like noise and smoke. We stayed here 3 nights in mid-Sept 2008. Started out in a first-floor room and after going to bed the first night, heard talking and doors slamming. But wait, it gets better! At 3 am Sunday morning, we were awakened by loud stomping above us. And it sounded like someone dropped something very heavy several times (maybe the microwave or refrigerator). Just when we thought it was over, it started again. After 45 minutes of off and on again noise, I contacted the front desk. The staff said it would be taken care of and we heard nothing after that. The person must have left. That evening we heard the people above us walking (this is not a masonry building, floors are wooden). So we were moved to a second-floor room; actually we moved ourselves, they weren't about to help. No elevator either, only 17 steps to trudge up. A lot of construction workers stay at this Comfort Inn. You can tell by the number of construction trucks in their parking lot. And a lot of people that stay here smoke; the halls reeked of smoke. And when we checked in and checked out, 3 or 4 of the staff were just outside the front entrance smoking. A big ashtray greats you at the front door! Uck! I guess what I'm overlooking is that NC is about 10 years behind the rest of the country when it comes to restricting smoking.
