When looking at the pictures on the website it looks nice..but once we got there Tuesday evening,checked in (booked a NON smoking room) & got to our room,it reeked of cigarettes and one bed had a burn hole! Get to Thursday afternoon,we come back so our toddler could take her nap,make her some food,get up to throw it away & notice TWO ROACHES inside the container!! The young lady in the lobby was kind enough to change give us a new room. Breakfast was ok,it was the same thing everyday and there so no other fruits other then apples wrapped in plastic. Breakfast needs more variety

OK, at this price point at Lake Norman, don't expect a Hilton. This property will definitely will be better than the two other budget properties across Catawba Ave. The older gentlemen checking us in really was a great example of excellent customer service. When we went to our room, there was a lot of "play" in the door catch. When I opened it up, it was obvious that the door was kicked in at some point. I was about to let that slide then I found out that the safety latch on the inside of the door was completely broken off (probably as a result of the kick in). That I couldn't let slide. I went back down, showed him a photo, explained the situation and he gladly moved my room and that room was much better. If you need a short stay getting off the interstate for a night, you probably aren't going to beat this property (in the sub $100 range). There is a ton close by (Starbucks, restaurants, gas stations and a Dollar Tree if you need water, snacks, etc.). The parking lot was well lit and at no point, did I feel the property was unsafe (Cornelius has an excellent police department).

Never again
For the price you get what you pay for. Staying a night sure, but wouldn't recommend anymore than that. Doesn't look like the owners want to invest the time or money to make it their own, and it shows.

Early checkout
I tried to check out before 6am to get an early start on the rest of my trip and no one was at the desk from 4-6:30. Then I noticed other guest coming down for breakfast and finally I saw someone preparing the food bar at least.

Whats going on!!!
I worked in the hospitality industry for over thirteen years and I have never stayed in hotel that didn't have any amenities in the room, no phone, no place to hang clothes, no microwave or refrigerator, no coffee maker. I was told by a member of the Lake Norman Inns and Suites that I could use the microwave the coffee maker in the common area. The smoke detector was missing!!!

The room was not clean (didn’t look like it had been vacuumed in a few days, very dusty). The light fixture between beds was not attached to the wall completely, the bathroom needs a re-do (tub faucet was rusted and dirty). The in room fridge had a loud compressor that cycled off and on.

Avoid!!!
One of the most disgusting hotel experiences I've had in quite some time. Literal pile of garbage in the room upon check in. Sticky substances and dirt scattered about. A bar of soap propping up a corner of the refrigerator. A discarded pacifier hanging from a lamp. Pubic hair stuck to things. Gross. Luckily staff gave me a new room when I showed them pics. The new room had an odd smell but I was too tired to complain further. Would not recommend
