The Spark hotel is located close to I-77, near the NC/SC border. It was very quiet. Its morning reception staff was friendly and helpful. I did not use business services. However, I saw a meeting room for about 10 people and a separate room with computers and a printer.
Check-in and check-out were easy. If you intend to use your Hilton member points or card, reserve your room(s) with Hilton, not through a third-party such as Expedia, Hotels.com, ... I found that out the hard way(:
The beds and bathroom were clean and comfortable. A big-screen television, microwave, and compact refrigerator were in the room. Lots of towels and hot water, hand soap, shower gel, shampoo, and body lotion were in the bathroom.
I used the gym. I believe it included elliptical equipment, treadmills, bikes, weights, and a stretching machine. I used the mat. I did not see sanitizing wipes. Uh oh. Bring your own wipes. The gym also included a television, towels, hot and cold water.
For those who like a cold continental breakfast, you will love it-bagels, muffins, cereal, yogurt, fruit, coffee. No hot food other than bagels for "southern breakfast" lovers. 24/7 coffee was a plus. Sufficient breakgast seating and ample outlets too. Hotel has an expectedly pricey convenience "store"-i.e., bring food and drinks with you.
The hotel experience was very nice. Spark marketing department can definitely contact me with offers for testing other its locations:) Enjoy!
