I really liked the location and all the staff was very friendly and very helpful. The only think that was kinda disappointing is the water pressure wasn't very good.

The water pressure was barely adequate in the bathroom and the sound on the television was poor quality sound. The lighting in the room was in adequate. The staff was very pleasant. The hotel was clean, well-maintained and smelled new.

Breakfast was very good with hot eggs and bacon. Staff was very friendly and helpful. You do need to realize that the hotel is on a busy street so there was a lot of traffic noise.

The hotel was nice and very clean. The only issue that bothered us was about 10 mins. after check-in we were in the room and there was a knock at the door. Before we could even get to the door, the guy from the front desk opens our door with a key and starts in. He was startled and left with no good explanation. Sketchy. 😳

2-years in a row that the pool was closed. Shower head leaked & had weak water pressure. The Conditioner was empty upon arrival & need to have some sort of ‘night light’ available instead of only bright lights or TV. Not being picky, I liked my stay… I’m just trying to give good honest feedback ~ easy improvements. Thank You.

My husband and I unknowingly booked the same room for his trip for the same night. Hotels.com refused to cancel one of the bookings and billed us for two nights in total for one stay.

The bed was very comfortable and the shower was amazing. It was kind of hard to close the shower door the whole way without alot of effort. The food at breakfast was not very good. Eggs were cold and milk was spoiled. Would not partake in the breakfast again. Also there was a really weird stench in the hallways and the elevator.

Do not go for the purpose of the pool because it’s tiny, but little kids would still enjoy it. Overall staff was great! There was just one front desk lady that wasn’t very pleasant. My biggest complaint was the SMELL in the elevators and in the hallways of the guest rooms, kind of garbage-like.

The water tasted funny when I brushed my teeth. There was cigar smoke coming into the room in the morning. The room wasn’t ready as promised. I really needed to get into the room at 3pm but it wasn’t ready until almost 5:30pm!

Hotel lobby was clean and up to date. The room.. not so much. The floors were super thin so you could hear people walking above you. The elevator was stinky! See pictures below for the bathroom in the room!

Was not pleased we couldn’t check into our room until 4:25. Check in time is 3. This made us 15 minutes late for receiving of friends for our loved one. We were immediate family. Very poor service trying to get a room ready for us. Was told they were full and no clean rooms. For 1 hour and 25 minutes??? Not Acceptable!

The room was TINY! The bed was incredibly uncomfortable and the only other place to sit in the room was an office chair. No couch, no chair, just a desk and a bed. Doesn’t get more bare bones than that.

For Shelby, it’s a nice new hotel. Disliked that I reserved a room with 2 queen beds for a work trip and when I checked in the put us in a king bed room with no mention. We walked downstairs and the woman at the desk just said they didn’t have any more 2 queen rooms but that the couch was comfy. The gentleman came out at the same time she said that and fixed the situation.

I really can’t say enough about our stay. Everyone was friendly and let me tell you, they had every reason not to be. We were in town for the Tarheel league state championship and there were kids everywhere. The staff was amazing, helpful, nice, friendly, accommodating and PATIENT! Thank you to the entire staff for being so accommodating.

As one of the more expensive properties in Shelby I expected more. Some one had thrown up in the elevator and the stench was there for my 2 night stay. The a/c unit grinded on starting..very noisy woke me every time it started. I heard people walking overhead through the night. People were at the fire pit outside well past midnight laughing and talking..poor sound insulation.

I’ve stayed at this hotel many times over the last 5 years. The elevator has a pronounced smell similar to vomit. Since Covid, the cleanliness of the hotel has taken a turn for the worst. It’s beginning to show its age with scuff marks around the shower area. Also, one of the gas fire pits was not working. With the significant price increase in the last two years I would expect better quality.
