Comfy bed with soft sheets on a budget
Convenient to work in Research Triangle Park but area has panhandlers. They stay to themselves and won’t bother you. Fantastic staff, comfy bed and soft sheets! I always felt safe.

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.

One night stay before our flight back to UK 🇬🇧
We had a good stay for one night before heading to the airport. Nice room with balcony to enjoy our final glass of wine before our flight to the uk very early the next morning.
We did ask if we were to stay again and didn’t have a car did they have a courtesy bus for the airport but they didn’t which is a shame.

Not again
This hotel is the worst. The room smells like mildew, feet and butt. There are stains on the floor and the curtains are coming down. I will NOT come here anymore.
