Sonesta Simply Suites Charlotte University

Great place, nice price.

Location wasn't bad. Bed was okay. The outside doors didnt work which is a pain if you parked on the other side of the building. Elevators didnt work either so that was fun. Carpeting in stairwell are really nasty. AC in room took overnight to cool off from 74 so sleeping wasnt ideal.

Attentive and responsive service from hotel staff, hotel room is clean and tidy, limited variety of breakfast, overall experience is acceptable.

The overall aesthetics of the room was great, however there was a smell in the unit which took away from the appearance. The smell was that of sour mildew indicating that maybe the carpet had not been vacuumed or shampooed in a while. Also the furniture had a bunch it knicks and scrapes on them and the fabric on sofa in the room was also dirty. Some water spilled on the cushion and the towel was really dirty after just pressure was applied to soak up the water. Also upon arrival the elevator was down and the only rooms available were on the 3rd floor while they offered a refund without penalty, I’d driven over 2hrs to get there and that should have been my sign of things to come.

The place had no wifi it was a sex juice on my bed when i first checked in i took pictures we had to change rooms and the room we changed to ac didnt work well the wifi would not connect i used the email i used at check in it was very dark outside the hotel kinda scary looking the hotel was out dated hallways and a whole in the floor in the hallway on my way to room 238 i fell on my way out this morning it a big whole in the floor und we the carpets i about broke my leg. It smell like dog sweat i. The hallway and the staff was helpful but standoffish when i came to complain about sparm loking spot on the bed

This place is honestly for the locals that need an extended stay/something affordable to stay in. It was very dated and not very clean and ALL my towels smelled like cigarettes.

⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ 4/5 This is definitely not a luxury hotel, but for a budget-friendly extended stay, it was a really solid choice. The room was simple but very clean, and that immediately made us feel comfortable. The biggest surprise was the bed — it was incredibly soft and comfortable, which is honestly rare to find in any hotel, regardless of price. For me, that alone made the stay worth it. Since this is a suite hotel, having the kitchenette was a huge plus. The room came with a full-size refrigerator and freezer, a two-burner cooktop, microwave, dishwasher, plates, cups, silverware, a pot, and a small skillet. It was especially convenient for keeping leftovers and simple meals. There is no ice machine, but the freezer had a refillable ice tray, so I would recommend grabbing a bag of ice on the way in if you use a lot of ice. The bathroom had full-size dispensers for hand soap, lotion, shampoo, and conditioner, which was a nice touch. The towels seemed new and fluffy. Our room initially had only two towels, but when we asked, the staff quickly brought us an extra full set. The AC worked well and had a continuous fan option, which was great for blocking out hallway and outside noise. Another nice feature was the good-sized laundry room, which would be especially helpful for anyone staying multiple nights or using this as a true extended-stay
