The hotel is perfectly located next to Charlotte Motor Speedway and Zmag Dragway, which is why I booked it. Food and gas are right near it too. Very convenient. Service was great. Exactly as expected for a holiday inn.

This hotel was by far the best I have stayed at in a long time. It was clean, smelled nice, friendly staff, hot breakfast, & quiet. The rooms are spacious with a fridge and microwave as well as a nice size bathroom and Dove products at the sink and in the shower. The entire hotel was clean on the.inside and outside.I have nothing negative to say about this hotel. My next time visiting Charlotte, I will definitely stay here again!
