We were in Raleigh for a few days visiting family and doing a bit of sightseeing, so we just needed a reasonably priced base for our activities. The Days Inn Raleigh Downtown was exactly what we needed - central location, ample car parking, good price.

The room had everything we wanted: free Wi-fi, TV, coffee machine, microwave (although we didn't use it, it might have been handy!), fridge, iron & ironing board, hairdryer, alarm clock. There's also a laundry room for those staying longer, I think you buy detergent at the front desk then it's $1.25 for a wash and $1.25 for a dry.

The location was good as we found it easy to drive to and park at, and also there's a lot of shops, restaurants, attractions within walking distance. The staff were all very pleasant.

We would go again in the future!

We were staying in Raleigh without a car and needed a place to stay downtown, but we couldn't spend too much. The Days Inn fit the bill. It was clean, relatively quiet, and so much cheaper than every other hotel in the downtown area. It's a bit of a walk to the main drag compared to the more expensive hotels, but well worth it. The front desk was always helpful in giving recommendations and directions: more so than any other days inn we've ever stayed at! The location and friendly staff made an average chain hotel a really great experience.

The service was terrible, a housekeeper walked in with a key at 4:45 pm on our check in date, we had no coffee pot, we asked for one and no one ever brought one, our clock was broken, and we went out our first morning at around 7:30 am and returned at 2:30 pm to a room that had not been touched and the cleaning staff vaccummed for 2 hours ruining any chance of a nap. We had an early day on our check out date and in that we had no clock I called for a wake up call that did not come so I was late for my event. We asked if we could print one document and it was and I quote "two much trouble" for one black and white page. And before we checked out again the housekeeping team just barged right in on us without knocking. Absolutely the worst hotel I have ever stayed in.

We stayed here for three nights during a 6-state Road Trip and found it perfectly adequate for our needs. The rooms were standard Days Inn/Hampton Inn/Fairfield Inn quality, functional and comfortable. Breakfast was very disappointing although they did have a nice seating area outside. The hotel is in a good location, easy walking distance to the main sights and restaurants. I would stay here again if I returned to Raleigh.
