Practical details and location
The practical details and the map point, 36.0891, -79.8211
The property’s own website
The property's own site: its name and its place are on the page
Safely managed drinking water, USA, 2024: The World Health Organization reports 98 per cent of the population nationally, 98 per cent in urban areas using a safely managed drinking water service. This describes the country, not this property, and says nothing about what reaches a guest room here. It is recorded because it is the background against which a property's own treatment is worth publishing.
Regional data is context about the location. It does not establish conditions inside a room.
Evidence by area
All eight areas, in the order this index reads them. Every line was read and placed by a person.
Air Ecology
Outside air supply to guest rooms is published as a rate. The hotel states over 40 cubic feet per minute continuously; the USGBC project page recorded 60 cubic feet per minute at certification in 2008, tempered by energy recovery against exhaust air. The two are consistent, the lower figure being a floor. The air is described as triple filtered with no grade published.
In their words: “Air quality is improved by circulating large amounts of outside air into guestrooms (60 cubic feet per minute) by employing "energy recovery" technology where the outside air is tempered by the air being exhausted.”
The hotel publishes its own current figure for the same supply, stated as continuous.
In their words: “Extraordinary indoor air quality because we put over 40 cubic feet per minute of triple filtered outside air into each guestroom 24/7/365”

Disclosures
Compare what each stay offers, how it was checked and what still needs confirming. Assessment labels describe the review, not an overall quality rating.
A low score means a property has not published information. It does not mean the property is unsafe, unhealthy or poorly run.
A score describes proof: what a stay publishes and, on a Human Garage certified stay, what our assessor checked in person. It is not a quality rating of the property. Listings are free, and any commercial relationship is disclosed.
