I had to return to the front desk three times to get into a room which was actually clean. The first two that I was given had not even been visited by the cleaning staff and in one of these, there was vomit on the bed. There was no apology or any effort made at reparations.A horrible experience to endure after traveling for hours and needing a rest.

A really nice property, will be really nice when they fix it up. The front desk clerk was fantastic and the young lady at the restaurant was perfect. Need to get your liquor license. Also within walking distance of a really nice bar.

Reception area of the property is good. Other than that, the hotel itself is not clean - while walking to the rooms. But cost wise, its Ok. 10 mins walk to blue line station - woodlawn.

The hotel was terrible but it also wasn’t great. There were black spots all over the headboard that I made sure to take pictures of so I wouldn’t get blamed for damages. There was also spots in the nightstand and the lamp was broken and ac unit door was broken as well. Def not a up to date hotel. I also didn’t like that it wasn’t clear that a $75 hold would be placed on my card. That was a huge inconvenience especially because I was only staying 1 night.

A fine hotel, but...

This hotel is a good bargain and had everything you would hope for in a moderate priced hotel. It was sparkling clean and well re-modeled. The owners invested a lot to bring it back. homeless people and drug dealers inhabited a short street behind a nearby shopping center. Why is the City of Charlotte so NEGLIGENT in allowing this? Charlotte voters should be outraged at crooked politicians for allowing this kind of anti-business activity to fester in in their city.

The property did not have hot water, the room had no microwave, and the elevator was broken the first night. Also, the property smelled of mildew. Furthermore, the house keeper came into the room to bring towels without knocking and I was seen undressed. Yet, the staff and security were pleasant and helpful as they could be.

I've stayed at Red Lion Inns before, but this one was disappointing, especially for $115. The staff was okay, but it went downhill from there. Some of the furniture in the room was damaged. There were cracks in the walls. I was greeted in the bathroom by a centipede and a juvenile roach. The tub surround was separating from the wall. The mattress had a large sag in the middle, which made it less than comfortable. The property (and the several others alongside) looks like it's in the middle of an industrial area. Next time, I'll just look for a Motel 6.
