“Nice Hotel but NOISY”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 January 2012

This hotel is very clean and the staff are friendly. I stayed in a double room and the beds are very comfortable. The pillows are my favorite. The rooms are spacious with nice furniture and tv. There is a coffee maker in the rooms with coffees and teas to choose from. Breakfast is available for a charge. The continental breakfast is a little pricey at $7 for what you get: some fruit, muffins, yogurt, cereal and some pastries. $7 just seemed a little high for what was offered considering its free at many hotels. There is a big selection of made to order items on the menu. Despite the cleanliness and great staff, it didn't make up for the noise at the hotel. The walls are extremely thin. I could hear everything from neighboring rooms including the phone ringing which sounded like it was in my room. Street noise was also incredibly loud. I often wondered if my balcony door was open because it was so loud. I was in town for business and found working in my room to be difficult because of the noise. If you will only be in your room at night and are a heavy sleepy then this is a great hotel. Otherwise, you may want to pass on staying here.

“Nice Hotel, good price”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 January 2012

I was a little skeptical after reading some of the older reviews, but this hotel has been renovated. It was very clean, spacious lobby, quiet (although we were there at a quiet time of year). We had a king room that was a nice size. The bed was very comfortable and the bedding was of a good quality, lots of fluffy pillows. We only paid $98 for a one night stay on a Saturday, which I thought was very, very reasonable. We've paid more than that at let's say "other" hotels with flat pillows, thin blankets, worn towels and less that clean bathrooms. The only thing I noticed that could be a problem if the hotel was busier is you could very clearly hear people in the hallway. We couldn't her any neighbors through our wall but could easily hear conversations and screaming children through corridor doors.

I think this hotel was well worth what we paid, and I wish other abundant chain hotels would offer this level of quality for this price. Oh, and if you're visiting someone at NC State the location couldn't be any better.

“Pleasant Stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 January 2012

We were a bit worried about staying here after reading negative reviews but really shouldn't have worried. It's a perfectly pleasant hotel. Big rooms, very newly refurnished and hot cookies on arrival. Who could want anything more? There is nothing to worry about.
