I was there for a night a few weeks ago. Paid the lowest rate possible. They upgraded me to a "King Executive Suite"--without me even asking. The room was fantastic, but not without its faults. Thought the living room in the suite was too dark to even read or do work. Furniture in that room was very uncomfortable. Ended up spending the majority of my time in the bedroom part of the suite (very comfortable!). Also, the "heavenly bathroom" was anything but heavenly. Shower pressure too low, and shower head too short. Bathroom soaps/amenities were pretty weak.

All in all, complains aside, just a fantastic property. Loved it, and will definitely come back.

I agree with you: these old properties just having something newer ones miss! (Which is why I didn't enjoy my Aloft in Asheville stay the following three nights.)

Will be staying here this Thursday night. How is the hotel bar for NFL football games? Anything good close by to catch the game?

I wouldn't think of the hotel bar as a sports bar.

However, it's right in the center of Greenville, so there must be several sports bars along the front street within a few blocks.

Carolina Ale House is accross the street. (Not my favorite for food--but great for sports).

The hotel bar, as well as the bar/restaurant attached downstairs are not ideal for watching sports.

As for my experience at the hotel, it is similar to what most have experienced. I have stayed three times at a low corp rate, and all three times I have been upgraded. Each time the GM sent little snack basket with a nice note. (I am not even a 50 night Plat yet).

The gym is small, but I have never seen it to be crowded. The cardio equipment is newer than any I have seen at any other property.

Any recent stays here? How does it compare to the Aloft which has a rooftop pool?
