Ramada Limited Lake Norman Area, Mooresville

By now you've probably browsed through the hotel's description, looked at the room pictures, and said, "Hmmm.. not bad for the price. And it's a Ramada so it can't be all that bad. Right?" Ramada-Shamada. Let me assure you now that the room that's pictured is NOT the room you're going to get! What's pictured are light, bright, airy, big clean rooms with big comfy beds. But when you get there and open the door to your room what you will find instead is a dark, dingy, unclean room with tiny crappy beds, broken fixtures, musty smoky curtains, and a moldy bathroom. Yuck! I swear the room pictures aren't even from his hotel! Oh but wait there's more! If you go to the front desk and try to complain, the nice young chippie behind the counter (with a cigarette and a nose ring) will politely tell you that refunds are out of the question and that you will need to speak to the manager (owner) who is never there. Ever. But what about all the other reviews? Y'know those people who just LOVE this place and can't wait to come back and stay??? Trust me, those people don't exist. Those 5-star reviews are obvious SHILLS by the greedy owner to get his roach motel's ratings up. Plain and simple. There's absolutely nothing 5-star about this rat-trap. Nothing. Do yourself a HUGE favor, and hit the button a few times on your browser and FORGET this place. Go ahead and spend the few extra dollars and stay at one of the many much nicer places that are literally right around the corner from this trash dump. You won't regret passing up this place. Not one bit.

We were very tired when we arrived in Mooresville and the first hotel we came upon was the Ramada Inn. We checked into the room and the first thing we noticed was the nasty smell of the rooms a combination of bug spray and perfume. We were tired and thought oh well we'll stay anyway. The beds were so rickety and uncomfortable and every time you moved it felt like the bed was going to collapse, to top things off the next morning after a very bad nights sleep I opened my Laptop and ants came crawling out of the keyboard. Needless to say we checked out first thing in the morning. We stayed at the Sleep Inn and their rooms were very nice.
