    We were intrigued by The Blake Hotel's images online, but should have heeded some of the other reviews. While the lobby area draws you in (well designed, and looks nice), the rooms were a real disappointment. They did a very poor job of 'renovating' an old, tired hotel. We don't mind that too much, but the rooms were dingy and the bathrooms were moldy and old. The walls in the rooms had new wallpaper slapped over what appears to be water damage - very visible. Anyway, a big disappointment. Won't stay there again.

    The Blake Hotel in Charlotte, NC was simply beautiful. The staff were helpful, kind, and pleasant. The rooms were clean and they provide linen and towels daily. The hotel is situated in Uptown Charlotte, making it easy to go downtown shopping, go to the conference centers, a hospital, the Blues, Brew, and BBQ Festival, and to get on and off the many freeways.

    First time to Charlotte, and enjoyed the stay here very much. Staff super friendly and would go out of there way for you. Rooms were cleaned daily, and very nice. Enjoyed the view from our room, and the closeness to downtown and the clubs. X, he is the best shuttle driver ever.

    The Blake is a better than average high-rise property about three quarters of a mile (or a 12-15 minute walk) from downtown Charlotte. The rooms are spacious with floor-to-ceiling windows. Bathroms are small and dimly lit. Beds are relatively comfortable--neither too hard not too soft. Widescreen TVs (32in. I think) are excellent. Pool is not in operation at present. Did not eat at the restaurant. Desk staff and doorman were courteous. A free shuttle is available to downtown. I was satisfied with the Blake and would stay again.

    The interior of the hotel looks just like the pictures-pretty nice. But once you stay for more than a day or two, you notice odd things. The hotel was remodeled several years ago, but it looks like it was remodeled just enough to get by. Old patched bathtubs and ancient thermostats detract from the updated sink and bedroom. Elevators are original and slooow. Several of my traveling companions has issues with temperature control which is noted several times in other reviews. My toilet leaked constantly which I also noticed was a recurrent problem in other reviews. Very dim lighting in the bathroom-imagine showering by candlelight. The hotel bar is cramped with low ceilings; it should be named the cave rather than the vault. Overall decor is dark-I couldn't wait to get out in the sunshine! If you get a great rate as I believe I did, the hotel is middle of the road. If I had paid full rate and expected a 4 star hotel, I would have been upset. The hotel provides a shuttle van and both drivers we met were wonderful; they went out of their way to assist us in any way. Thanks * and *! The hotel is on the fringe of uptown; not terribly close to all of the restaurants but still walkable is needed.
