Rebecca Rose Reilly

Disliked: Staff & service
This hotel is adequate and seemed clean. There was minor damage but the room was useable. I would not recommend staying here as they have rooms located next to the elevator. The hallway noise was so loud even past 2 am. Our bed may as well have been located in the lobby. They charge 8 dollars per day for parking. It’s not a huge cost but feels like nickle and dining for a suburban parking lot. When we checked in, we were told that we have 30 dollar food and beverage credit per day. Upon check out, the credit wasn’t applied. When I called, the staff told me that the credit didn’t apply due to how I booked. This misleading information was frustrating since we ate at the hotel with the credit in mind.

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Disliked: Staff & service
Facilities (4/5): for an older hotel, the lobby is fairly modern and the hallway floors look relatively new. Room (4/5): the room is spacious and the bed is comfortable. It has outlets for various types of cables and adapters. Bathroom (1/5): the bathroom counter is so low that it is more suitable for a daycare. The bathtub is also so small that it is about 2/3 of a standard tub. My friend’s room, however, has a standard bathroom. It might be just a matter of luck. Service (1/5): the front desk staff had a rude attitude. And if you did not book a room through Hilton directly and you may be treated poorly and be stuck with a different room type. I booked a King bed room but was given a double beds room without first telling me during my check in. I walked to my room at the end of the hallway and then had to back down to the front desk and ask for a King bed room. Instead of checking his computer to see if a King bed room is available, the front desk staff immediately claimed none is available and blamed others and me for faults (e.g., someone else assigned the room; you booked through a third party so we cannot guarantee the room type; you did not tell me earlier about your room type; etc.). After I walked all the way back to my room, he called and said a King bed room “just became available” but I declined because I did not feel like walking all the way back again and dealt with his rude attitude. It was an unpleasant experience.

This hotel has seen better days. You can tell it's a solid 4 star hotel based on the upscale interior and amenities. Quite likely guests prefer newly built hotels closer to Raleigh / Chapel Hill. Hotel management offering rooms at a competitive price, but making up for that by charging $8 for parking. There's also a shady hotel across the parking lot. Overall, a pleasant trip.
