EMILY, Winston Salem

For the money this hotel is overall fine. The room was clean, the bathroom was clean, the front desk people were very nice. My only beef with this hotel is that the side entrances on the left side of the building/parking lot did not lock to the outside. There was a panel where you could stick your room key in that was supposed to unlock the door, which presumably means they should have been locked to the outside, but the two doors I used did not lock. One of them didn't even close completely. This meant that any rando from the neighborhood could have come into the building without having to go through the front lobby. This seems very unsafe. I informed two separate front desk people of this and they said they were going to get maintenance on it. That was a week ago (Sept 2025) and hopefully they fixed it by now. Assuming that is fixed this is an acceptable hotel in the fairgrounds/NC State area. I got it because I decided at the last minute to spend the night in Raleigh so I could go to the second day of an event I was there for. I didn't want to spend a lot of money and I needed something close to the fairgrounds because I was tired from traveling and not sleeping well the night before. If you just need somewhere to sleep and you're not looking for a posh experience (and they fix those doors!) this was fine.

Great walkable location to Lenovo Arena. Free parking. Hotel is dated, but clean and comfortable. Would definitely stay here again, especially for shows at Lenovo or for NC State games.

The room had a unique disgusting odor. We found so much garbage by one of the beds. There were drug perifinelia items inclyding a needle and a pipe on the floor. We learned wgat it was because we took pictures abd sent them to my friend who's a police officer. The bed wasnt handicap accessible like we were told.

It’s ok. Defiantly needs to be updated. The shower heads are very old and not great. Replacing those would be nice. The property isn’t dirty and it’s relatively quiet. Staff were nice and helpfully. Just overall really really dated.

It’s an okay place with very friendly staff. They offer decent breakfast. But the property seems to be aged and not well kept. We found a few cockroaches inside the room and bathroom.

Overall I enjoyed my stay! The room was clean, the musky odor dissipated after a few hours! Any needs were immediately addressed. The pool was clean and the water was nice. I have to brag on the breakfast because the food was delicious and not prepackaged items. This meal was hot and cooked to perfection. The staff were very hospitable and kind. This property would be really nice with attention given to, updating cosmetic issues, landscaping attention, painting, and deep cleaning to give it a fresh scent!

The rooms have a musky odor to them. The first room smelled so bad I had to get another room. This one is better but still has an odor.
