The first room I checked into the room had not been cleaned and the towels were on the floor and chair, along with the bed not being made. The second room was better - but be prepared to wipe down the handles and desk area. There was a dead stinkbug on the curtain and no hair dryer in room. You could smell folks were smoking weed in the evening, and there is a small non-disruptive homeless camp in the forested area behind the hotel. The side of the bed that was nearest the door was like sleeping in a pit - I had to turn the mattress around to sleep flatly. Definitely a good price point, the staff were amazing and I felt safe.

First Room was not satisfactory.

You asked about my stay and cleanliness so I say this. The first room we were given appeared to have fleas in the carpet. This could have been helped perhaps by vacuuming the carpet. My experience was that my legs and feet were being bitten by something the minute I walked into the room. My husband complained and we were moved to another room. The biting and scratching stopped after we were moved moved to another room.

I really appreciated how kind & patient the front desk person was when we checked in and how they go above and beyond to help and accommodate their guest's needs. And the rooms are beautiful and clean with plenty of space & the area seems serene and silent. Definitely one of the better options for a hotel in the RTP area!

While this property said no smoking, the hall smelled like marijuana and smoke throughout, the carpets and the bedrooms were filthy and there were huge stains on the couches and even when I asked did he moved to a different room? There was still the same issue. The agent was asleep on the couch.

Property suppose to have Breakfast but when we checked in, we were told no breakfast. In the morning coffee is available but it was like medicine, like stale, nasty. Sink counter is too small and the sink and bathtub was clogged up so first night had to get maintenance to clean it out with a snake. Also, shower handle to turn on the water is broken falling out of the wall so had to be careful to not pull on it. The shampoo smelled like sewage and conditioner was like milk. Shower gel smelled normal. The carpet under the AC unit was wet so there must be a leak underneath somewhere. When I noticed it was on the third day so I did not fuss. The carpet in the room was stained all over the place. One side of the bed lamp and plug did not work so my husband and I had to switch sides so he could charge his phone( this one might be nick picking but with all the things that is wrong, might as well it be known). The hall ways stunk like mildew and/or sometimes pot. Workout room was available which was good but also stunk.

First off… the room was great. Very clean, hot water, great bed. That’s said…beyond the fact that check in involved the least interaction possible on behalf of the person checking me in. No big deal. I don’t require good customer service while checking in. It’s a formality. What I do have an issue with is the five beeps. The five beeps produced by the smoke detector in the hallway outside of the room. Every 30 seconds 5 beeps. Like clock work. The first time I brought it up to the staff I was given a “oh yeah, someone is going to fix that”. And surprisingly NOTHING was done. So the second time it was brought up with me saying “is anything going to be done about the beeping sound?” (Mind you this was 3pm and I was facing the thought of sleeping through another night of beeping) I was given a “yes, the staff will fix it in the morning”.

Do not stay here

This was the first place I booked and when I got there, it was disgusting. It smelled like mildew and cigarettes. The rooms were disgusting and they even move me to another room and it was equally disgusting. Then when I requested to get my money back because I refuse to stay there They said no and it’s either you use it or you lose it and then when they talk to the hotels.com rep they told her that if I paid more money, I could get a better room. I assume whenever you are staying at a hotel it should be clean and if I have to pay more money to get a clean room that is absolutely crazy. This hotel is disgusting and they should be shut down.
