Pros:

Checkout team was extremely friendly and offered to fill my water bottle since the water dispenser was turned off. The property is older, and not the cleanest. There was dirt on the baseboards in the bathrooms and the carpets felt dirty. It was nice having a suite, so my daughter could go to bed and I could stay up but it was challenging getting ready in the morning as the only mirrors are in the bathroom, which is small compared to the size of the room.

Pros:

Room was clean, but there is a big gap under the door an we were by the elevators on the first floor. The stay was incredibly loud all night long. We were also charge a $90 incidental fee that I was told would fall off the room after we check out. This was not disclosed at check in.

Pros:

We recently started at this establishment on a trip to Fayetteville. We loved the easy location of this hotel. Right off the highway to get to quickly, a quick uber downtown to Dickson Street where there was amazingly delicious food and shops. Then we enjoyed a nice walk back to the hotel via a local trail. Overall this was a great hotel from service and cleanliness to a great location. Would definitely stay here again!

Pros:

Everything was very nice and accommodating. The only thing I’d say we needed was an additional chair in the room. Only one chair makes the other person have to sit on the bed which is not always convenient.
