Although I clearly booked a "double deluxe" with 2 king beds, online, they were not able to find my reservation anddenied offering 2 king beds. The room was a dump! The stand/dresser had 3 drawers in it, all broken. The bedding was moderately clean. The floor had not been vacuumed. There wasn't a single waste basket in the room. The... more

I have mixed feelings about this place...On the one hand, the staff is great. I had booked the wrong date and by the time I noticed it, a free cancellation wasn't possible anymore. However, they set the booking on the right date free of charge. I'm grateful for that. Nonetheless, we didn't have a pleasant experience at all. When we... more

You will struggle to find a place to stay as cheap as this one, especially a place which offers the same range of facilities. Each room is big, with a fridge, microwave, couch, TV, writing desk etc. There's a pool, free internet and small gym also. There is even a superb laundrette nearby for those who need to wash their... more

Sketchy clientele; no HBO as advertised; wireless internet in room does not work and has not for weeks as I understand it and free access was advertised; smelly non-smoking room; breakfast is terrible; no special mattresses as advertised; personnel are friendly, but that is about it. How this place would win an award I have no idea. Good location. Cheap... more

The room was clean, bathroom clean and front staff nice. Something went wrong with electrical outlets for coffee and orange juice machines for breakfast. Had a little trouble with card scanning to open room door. However during our two night stay everything was good especially for the price. It was very close to Duke Children Hospital and we also dropped... more

This was the worst hotel ever. We got in at 2 am and there were people in the parking lot, talking etc. and let me just say they were up to no good. There was only enough toliet paper to use 2 times, and there was no refil. After wakeing up and giveing my young child a shower I went... more

Dear Mom of 2 Kids, I remember you because it is rare that someone has ever been, in my 20 years of experience, so blisteringly rude to me. I do not accept abusive behavior from anyone, including my guests. No amount of money is worth being spoken too as you spoke to me. I do not understand why a refundable...
