Well. I didn't stay long enough to evaluate the property. I had stopped by a year prior to check out the new casino, and figured the hotel might be a nice play to stay while riding through North Carolina. So I booked a night. We rode most of the day, arrived, and checked in. (feeling kinda like I shouldn't be there because I arrived on a motorcycle) My girlfriend and I had been traveling and wanted a nice upscale hotel to stay and have a nice meal. Turns out there wasn't a restaurant at all. I was told "It might be open in a few days", and was told there was a "food court". . Getting back on the bike to scout for a nice restaurant was NOT in our plans. As unwelcome as I felt, I decided to check out, ride another 45 minutes, and stay elsewhere. My dissatisfaction fell on deaf ears, as the two people at the desk didn't seem to care. I had to eat the $$ for the room we never used, and it honestly seemed nobody cared if we stayed or left.

Disappointed that the advertised Ramsey’s Kitchen on the website (including the menu) does not actually exist. The only food offerings were in the food court or Starbucks. The cleanliness of the accommodation also left something to be desired - carpets in the elevator did not appear to have been vacuumed during our stay, nor had someone’s false nail been swept up from the carpet in the corridor outside our room.

The website was not accurate. The pool was not yet open, food options were small and there was no room service. The arcade was a bust half the machines didn’t work and when they did, they would jam up and also the credits that were shown to be one did not coincide with the credits that were put on the card. The room was OK but the pillows on the bed were not even the standard size pillows. They were pretty small and also there was a space for a microwave, but there was none.

Excellent Room, Good Dining Options, Fine Service

My check-in with Chelsea was quite satisfactory, as she honored my request for a quiet room away from the remaining construction. Even though it was on a low floor, the room had a nice view of the surrounding mountains. Everything in the room worked great. Shower had good pressure and lots of hot water. Only 40 channels, but TV remote was easy to operate. Bed sank a little in the middle, but I guess that's what most folks want.The food options and quality in the food court were very good, and the service was friendly.With one of the restaurants closed, the long and varied list of area eateries was VERY helpful. Overall, I was very pleased with my stay and recommend it highly.
