Omni Charlotte Hotel
I enjoyed the room & the hotel itself. The only bad thing was that it took over an hour to get my car back from the valet. We also had a later checkout time so it’s not like everyone was leaving at the same time. No explanations were given as to why it took so long

The room was clean and roomy. All the staff we interacted with were very friendly. The breakfast area tended to get busy and it was sometimes hard to access food easily.
