“Good for the price & location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 December 2011
1
person found this review helpful

I have stayed here twice in the last 2 months & would stay again. It is very simple, shows a bit of wear, but I have no complaints because it was clean and the price was quite reasonable - which is why I give it 4 out of 5. It is close to Hwy 74, 52 and I-485.

Convenient location to south Charlotte along I-485 and Independence Blvd corridor. Fast food, gas, chain restaurants nearby. About 10-15 minutes max to grocery or other retail. 25 minutes to Carolina Place Mall. About 45 minutes from airport, a little less to downtown. Great contemporary church across highway, Elevation.

Front desk was friendly and helpful. Access to property is awkward, but no big deal when you figure it out. TV, AC, wifi, bath, lights etc. all worked fine. Very few guests so I imagine the owners are struggling a bit - they seem like they are trying very hard so I wish them success.

Room Tip: Set away from the highway, so low noise level. Parking is fenced. I was able to park directly unde...

“Out-dated, in need of maintenance”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 November 2011

Poor choice for a stay: (a) had to change one room because door would not open (b) very worn linens (c) spliced lamp power cord that separated during our stay (d) clock that only displayed 12:00 am. Definitely shows lack of maintenance. Avoid this location.

“abandoned”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 October 2011

No pic for reservations, no access from main rd, street access into the back of the parking lot was gated, chained and padlocked, looked like an abandoned hotel. When we finally found an access to the front it was down a beat up full of pot holes service street behind some old strip malls. I never went into the room but asked if I could cancel the reservation and the attendant would not even think about it. I asked if I could use the reservation at another econo lodge about six miles down the road that actually looked like they were in business and he said no. This place shouldn't be in business the way it looks. It looks very unsafe!!!! Nobody should have to stay in a place like this feeling unsafe and not be able to cancel or get their money back. I will turn this into the BBB!!!!!

“Comfortable stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 September 2011

Great hotel, The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The room clean and the beds comfortable. Check-in took maybe 2 minutes, and the guy at the desk was very friendly and helpful with restaurant recommendations. The room was clean and comfortable. We would stay here again.
