Staff was helpful and the late night bar had good food and friendly staff. Though the walls of the rooms were thin and I could hear my neighbors and the hallways quite loudly

Wingate by Wyndham Charlotte Airport I-85/I-485
Have witnessed drug deals going down next door twice while staying at this location. 2 local police vehicles and an ambulance were in the hotel when we checked in. Some of the physical facilities are looking worn. Graffiti etched in the elevator.
