I flew over night from the West coast to charlotte and was staying here for a visit to Congaree. Congaree is a pretty small park so after a morning hike and no sleep, I was completely exhausted but still waiting for my ‘stay’ to start. They were able to get me in a room a couple hours before check in so I didn’t have to sleep in my car. Hotel is well maintained and it’s next to a lot of bars and restaurants.
