The basketball court in the middle of an atrium open to 3 floors of rooms might be the worst design even of a hotel. Kids and parents are running and yelling in there all day and night as if it were a McDonald’s Playland. Hotel staff did not help mitigate the constant yelling. It is truly unbelievable. Would definitely not ever stay here unless it was truly the last place in Chapel Hill.

The drag show for 3 hours was a terrible idea. It was loud and that is not for family to enjoy. It literally took up the entirety of our stay. That would have been a better idea for vegas or a bar.
