10/10 Excellent

"Clean great room great property great breakfast"

Fairfield Inn by Marriott Charlotte Gastonia

8/10 Good

"All of the staff at the hotel were so friendly and kind. They have done a good job maintaining the hotel but it is really showing its age and could use some updates. The seals on all the windows were broken so the windows in the rooms were all fogged over. The tub in my room backed up and would not drain. They were nice enough to change my room since the problem couldn’t be fixed in a timely manner. The water pressure on the showers was too low. There was a couch in my room that had some stains on. The pool was also not available to use. Overall the stay was just fine and I was very comfortable. Hopefully they will get the needed updates to the rooms and it will be even better."
