Disliked: Staff & service
This was a last minute booking (on a Sunday) and I was most disappointed as I sat at the front desk for 25 minutes waiting for someone to check me in. That was strange and very uncomfortable as folks were coming in and the bartender who noted they couldn’t do anything about my standing there. She was unempathetic/dismissive.

This was a great stay...we visit our daughter who lives/works in Charlotte and like the AC for proximity to her home. It would be helpful to manage the lobby activity near front desk. Those drinking and lingering into the front desk area, LOUD and OBNOXIOUS can be much (typically Parents of athletic kids staying and over indulging every night). AC Hotel is the best and prime spot for a quality and premium stay. Note: they do NOT perform nightly housekeeping, it is only every other day. Great hotel!!! Great staff! Great amenities and surrounding retail & restaurants. BlackFinn & Egg Spectation...YUMM!

Adewale

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I booked a room for my wife to get away and have some child free quiet time to relax. I used some of my OneKey rewards and paid for the balance but this hotel and its staff absolutely defeated the point by creating an experience where she had to deal with inaccurate charges upon checkout. Then she was told the manager wouldn’t be in until the late afternoon and nothing could be done until then and required us to return to the hotel to deal with it. As a Bonvoy Gold Elite member, this is an extremely disappointing situation to have to deal with.

Dear Adewale, Please accept my sincere apologies for any errors with your bill. This certainly does not indicate how we do business as this is not typical.

Wonderful Hotel ! Staff walked the proverbial extra mile to make sure this was a.pleasant experience. Especially the breakfast was amazing...fresh, loads of healthy options and nicely presented. Only (non- essential )draw back was the shower dripping into the bathroom and generally somewhat of a sloppy craftsmanship, a lack of attention to little details. But that's unfortunately common and everything looks good at first glance, modern and fresh and is -most importantly- clean. Liked it, thank you!

Great location
Awesome location. Great rooms. Exercise room was all I could ask for machine-wise and view, although they didn’t have wipe’s available to clean afterwards; despite me letting the front desk know, clean supplies never were made available. Check in process was non-existent. We checked in early on the Bonvoy app. When we checked in no one else was checking in, but the person simply gave me my keys. I like to know- where to park, coffee avail, what about buffet, etc. not a huge deal but obviously a big miss when every other aspect of the hotel was great. Same for checkout process- someone who says “hope your enjoyed your stay, etc” could go a long way. In general would 100% stay here again and my hope is over time the staff becomes a little more welcoming and attentive.

We only stayed one night as we had a flight the next day. Check in was very quick and she provided us with all the information that was needed and upgraded our room. The room was very clean and spacious. The only issue was the bathroom door would not close without my husband having to forcefully moving it. Besides that everything was great. Will stay hear again!
