Excellent welll kept property. Close to Bank of America stadium (walkable) and NASCAR Hall of Fame. Be prepared to pay about $50 a day for Valet or $ 35 a day for self parking in your travel budget at this establishment. The valet service is excellent. I text ahead and my vehicle was ready and waiting for me by the time I got off the elevator.
