Clean, quiet room with comfortable bed. Very good location to shops and Carolina Theater. Multiple up charges were a shocker, especially the $25 parking fee when staying there.

Doors had holes at the bottom that allowed the light to come in and probably critters (I didn’t see any). The outdoor deck was nice and sunny.

Location is great, right in the middle of downtown. The rooftop bar with "igloos" is great. Very nice staff.

Easy parking though if you have a large SUV, it might be a tight fit. Great location to several eating options and DPAC. Quirky motel style hotel. We stayed on the pool floor and it was Igloo season and music was playing. Staff was friendly and helpful. The beds were comfortable as were the pillows, we slept well. We’d definitely stay there again.

6/10 Good

Its a very quirky hotel. The interior room is tiny and didn't have a window. So I got upsold a room with a window it was still small but its only accessed via outdoor walkway which stinks when it is only 20 degrees outside. Checkin also took forever since their card reader wasn't working. Last there's a loud train at midnight and dumpster pickup at 4a.
Dane, 1-night trip
Verified

6/10 Good

Great location and cool building from the outside, but inside it feels cold and deserted. Room is the antithesis of cozy- high ceilings and poor lighting. Also hard to adjust temperature. Would not stay there again.

Pleasant staff but not overly friendly. Room was spacious and clean. Pool area was cute. Hate paying to park but expected expense as we were downtown. Great location / lots of walkable fun things to do and see.
