This is one of the very best Extended Stay America properties in the North Carolina area. Room is always clean and the front desk staff is always friendly and helpful I always try to stay at Extended Stay America hotels when I travel and this is one of my favorite hotels and I always choose this property when I travel to Raleigh. The hotels is close to downtown, the interstate although it is quiet and you would not know the interstate was there, also close to shopping Crabtree Valley Mall and the Town Center Shopping Complex as well as North Hills Mall. The breakfast bar is helpful and the internet is always very good at this location, all and all for the price you will not find a better hotel in Raleigh in this price group.

My husband and I recently stayed in the Homestead Studio Suites Raleigh - northeast. Though we only spent one night there because we were passing through, we could have easily stayed longer if needed. The room was impeccably clean, the bed comfy, and the service great. We would highly recommend this place again. Considering what we paid for a one night's stay, it was definitely the best bargin in the Raleigh area.

Having stayed here 3 times in the past I was used to the front desk clerk being rude. When I was sent an electronic survey I filled it out to that effect and to the effect that at midnight I was asked to come back down stairs because on top of her being rude she forgot to have me sign somthing. I complained on the survey and was called by the property manager. The manager offered me a free night. When I went to book the night a week later I was told that the manager who offered the room was no longer there. No matter because they would still honor the room. Nevertheless, I used the night and was bitten by bed bugs. I saved one as proof. Not looking for money or any type of compensation I called the hotel manager to let her know. The insurance company called me and I explained to them (after they told me that the hotel found no bugs) that I was not looking for anything and I wasnt even sure why they called. I did tell them that with all of the law suits about bedbugs and the fact that I had no intention of pursing the matter they need to make the hotel accountable for anyone else that gets bitten. I told the insurance company that they would be liable because I TOLD THEM there were bugs in that room and the hotel is more interested in saving their reputation than correcting the problem. Bed bugs are nasty so if you stay there you are taking your chances. Granted I stayed there before without incident, this last time the bed smelled funny (like body odor) and the bed bugs. I am convinced the room had not been cleaned the way it should have been. My concern was for the next person unfortunate enough to stay in the room. This was my experience.

The hotel was pretty nice and in a quiet area. I stayed in the studio room. Since this establishment was for extended stay, they had the full size fridge, Cooktop, sink, microwave and dishwasher. The room was fairly clean even though when i turned the tv from the sitting area to the sleeping area, there was some dust hanging out there. The size of the room was ok. The queen bed was not the most comfortable...It was a little hard, but ok for one night. They did have a small indoor pool and small workout room. Be aware that this hotel, while close to the main artery Capital Blvd., was still off the beaten path a little (close to an ice rink if that's your thing). Overall its ok, but I don't think its a 3-star establishment (or 2.5 star as stated by hotwire). Overall pretty good stay, just be aware of the bathroom door. It slides instread of swinging open like normal, and I don't think I was ever able to close it quite right. The staff was pretty nice even though there were just a few of them and they screwed up my late checkout.. Overall pretty good stay at a place that was not run down and skanky...
