Quick weekend

The hotel was very nice. The room was clean and mostly quiet. Only issue I had was the front desk staff. He was not rude just inattentive and short. We would stay here again.

Perfect stay for a girls getaway!

This hotel was absolutely amazing. Stayed jan 31st-feb 2nd and it was PERFECT stay from start to finish. Welcoming and accommodating staff, excellent options for the complimentary breakfast, able to park ( for free) right by the door leading to my room and the room was spacious and comfy for 4 women. Even their coffee was excellent. Will definitely stay again if in the area!!!!

8/10 Very good

Great staff, very clean, close to NCSU. The only con to staying at this property is the thin floors. We could hear the folks above us walking in their rooms. I don't think they were stomping, just thin floors. A nice property but unsure if we would stay again because a good night's sleep goes a long way and there is not much you can do about noise if the floors are thin. Kudos to the staff all the way around

Excellent experience

Excellent experience. We visited during a popular time so the general manager reached out via email to notify that they would be charging one night’s rate to the card on file. Check-in was smooth, I called prior to notify that we would be arriving around 1am. Everything in the suite was clean and the furniture was in good condition. Mattress was very comfortable.

Hotel was nice and clean. Not far from venue. Gas station across the street. Main highway is a light up from hotel. Only issue is having to get in highway to drive about 10 mins to stores/restaurants.
