This was the worst hotel ever . It smelled horrible. The phones in the room didn’t work, the room smell like dog urine The towels were old, hard and small the bed. The toilets overflowed. No breakfast was served horrible !!! Never stay at this hotel!!No maid service after 5. No clean linen provided for the pullout sofa. The pillows were small.the mattress had lint balls. I was give Zep spray to tone down the smell of urine. The front desk clerk showed no empathy!! He stated he couldn’t give me a new room because the hotel was full for that night! All in all it is the worst hotel ever

I booked a handicap accessible room over a month before my scheduled stay. I even called the hotel after I booked on Travelocity and confirmed that I wouod have an accessible room with an accessible tub instead of shower. I was assured my request would be fulfilled. When I checked in, they said they had no accessible rooms available and that I didn't make reservations for one. I showed them my confirmation stating I was confirmed for an accessible room with 2 queen beds. They again said they had none avaliable and asked if they could put me in a regular room for the night. I was in Durham for a 5-night stay and it was midnight by this time, so I said okay, but had to have an accessible room the next day. The tegular room they gave me was apparently the last room available and was the dregs of all the room. I could barely get to the bed because the dresser was so close, part of the blackout curtain was ripped down and would barely close enough to prevent a view into the room from the parking lot, and another part of the curtain had a long vertical rip that I had to hold closed with a couple of my hair clips. The worst part was I physically could not get to the bathtub, as my electric chair could not fit between the toilet and around the door. I am a full leg amputee and have to use my electric chair to navigate right up to things. I was in town to got to a funeral for my best friend and couldn't even bathe before going to it. I'm still so upset.

First Room was not satisfactory.

You asked about my stay and cleanliness so I say this. The first room we were given appeared to have fleas in the carpet. This could have been helped perhaps by vacuuming the carpet. My experience was that my legs and feet were being bitten by something the minute I walked into the room. My husband complained and we were moved to another room. The biting and scratching stopped after we were moved moved to another room.

I really appreciated how kind & patient the front desk person was when we checked in and how they go above and beyond to help and accommodate their guest's needs. And the rooms are beautiful and clean with plenty of space & the area seems serene and silent. Definitely one of the better options for a hotel in the RTP area!

While this property said no smoking, the hall smelled like marijuana and smoke throughout, the carpets and the bedrooms were filthy and there were huge stains on the couches and even when I asked did he moved to a different room? There was still the same issue. The agent was asleep on the couch.

Property suppose to have Breakfast but when we checked in, we were told no breakfast. In the morning coffee is available but it was like medicine, like stale, nasty. Sink counter is too small and the sink and bathtub was clogged up so first night had to get maintenance to clean it out with a snake. Also, shower handle to turn on the water is broken falling out of the wall so had to be careful to not pull on it. The shampoo smelled like sewage and conditioner was like milk. Shower gel smelled normal. The carpet under the AC unit was wet so there must be a leak underneath somewhere. When I noticed it was on the third day so I did not fuss. The carpet in the room was stained all over the place. One side of the bed lamp and plug did not work so my husband and I had to switch sides so he could charge his phone( this one might be nick picking but with all the things that is wrong, might as well it be known). The hall ways stunk like mildew and/or sometimes pot. Workout room was available which was good but also stunk.

First off… the room was great. Very clean, hot water, great bed. That’s said…beyond the fact that check in involved the least interaction possible on behalf of the person checking me in. No big deal. I don’t require good customer service while checking in. It’s a formality. What I do have an issue with is the five beeps. The five beeps produced by the smoke detector in the hallway outside of the room. Every 30 seconds 5 beeps. Like clock work. The first time I brought it up to the staff I was given a “oh yeah, someone is going to fix that”. And surprisingly NOTHING was done. So the second time it was brought up with me saying “is anything going to be done about the beeping sound?” (Mind you this was 3pm and I was facing the thought of sleeping through another night of beeping) I was given a “yes, the staff will fix it in the morning”.
