Pros

Free bicycle rentals for exploring Downtown Charlotte

Multiple dining venues within 0.5 miles radius

Walking distance to major cultural attractions and sports venues

Cons

5.5 miles distance from the airport

Limited on-site dining options

“The newness of the hotel is appealing, as is the proximity to uptown restaurants and a nearby Wholefoods; I also appreciated the eco-friendly ethos, with bikes available for exploring the city. A couple of logistical quirks-like the exterior-access-only stairs-were minor inconveniences, but the friendly staff more than made up for it. It strikes me as a solid choice for a Charlotte stay.”
