The frame for the king bed was terrible though, any movement no matter how small was incredibly loud to the point you can’t believe what you’re hearing is even possible. I greatly appreciated a call from the owner to touch base about checking out and what not, and unlike many other spots that expect you to deep clean the house before leaving, this one had no such requirement."

"Our stay at this facility was amazing even though a little confusing at first, it was just amazing. Everyone in their faculty were so graciously helpful from the Valet Parking Attendants to the Guest Services at our checkout. My wife was surprisingly excited when one of the Valet Attendants retrieved our vehicle, had it running and opened the door for my wife. We are Southerners, yet rarely find gentlemen mannerism when we travel- at this facility, you will find just that if that’s what you’re looking for. The rooms were large and spacious with extremely comfortable beds and plenty of pillows to relax with. We enjoyed a wonderfully filling breakfast every morning (the bacon was cooked perfectly) to start adventurous day. Now, the rooftop restaurant was not an actual part of the Hotel, but The Fahrenheit Charlotte on the 21st floor had an ambience of tranquillity with a touch of romance. The Bartender we had made us feel comfortably at home, as if we had known him forever. You do not have to be a star to get the star treatment, as I was told “it’s just our job and we like to make you feel at home” I truly recommend this Hotel, their staff and surrounding facilities to anyone… Respectfully yours, Brian"
