Most of the desk staff are friendly. The cleanliness of the hotel, or lack there of, is where the hotel really loses points for me. I've stayed at this hotel several times for work, and the rooms are always barely cleaned, if at all. Multiple times I've checked in, was given a room that was never cleaned from the previous guest (bed still soiled, dirty towels still piled in the bathroom, garbages full--literally no one even went in the room) that was allegedly cleaned and had to go back to the front desk to be given a different room. Other times, I had to ask for a different room because there was hair all over the sheets and it looked like they weren't even changed and the bed had been made with the same sheets from the last guest. When the rooms are "clean", the counters still aren't clean, the floor hasn't been swept, the carpet hasn't been vacuumed, the soap dispensers are empty, etc. I usually tip maid service $25 a week even though they only clean the room once a week at this hotel, but I've stopped tipping when I stay at this particular hotel--if I have to clean my own room when I check in, then it doesn't seem fair that I'm expected to tip for that. The front desk is always very nice about giving me a different room when I check in to find my allegedly ready room was never cleaned, but I will try to stay at the one in Apex if I'm back in town again for work because I can't handle how dirty this hotel is. It's a shame, because most of the front desk staff are great.
