We got stuck in Raleigh after a long transatlantic flight and need somewhere to stay for the night. I picked this place because they listed airport shuttle and room service (we were arriving late and had just gotten off a 10 hour flight and wanted to be able to get something to eat). I called the hotel to find out where to get the shuttle and they told me the driver called off. Do we had to pay for a uber. Got to the hotel at 9:30 and they told us the Resturant closed at 10 and do did room service. Also the Resturant had a limited menu. We were told it was because of the time. We’re both vegetarian so there wasn’t much to eat. They also informed us that they didn’t have a driver for the morning either and that we would have to take another uber. The next morning I called the front deft at 5am and asked them to call us a cab. They told me they don’t know how…. The lady at the font desk reimbursed us $15 to cover the $40 we spent in uber fees. This place isn’t a Hilton, it’s a motel 6 at best…..

The staff was very friendly and kind, and made me feel welcome and safe. As a long time Hilton Honors member, I stayed with the brand out of loyalty but was not able to benefit from points because I booked through Expedia, which never used to make a difference. The coffee and toilet tissue in the room were not replenished. One of the reasons I chose this property, booked in advance, was because of the pool and forecast for almost 100 degree weather. The pool was out of order for my entire stay- I would have had to pay anyway if I cancelled and went somewhere else. This made my trip less enjoyable. The kind shuttle driver offered to drive me across the highway to the indoor pool at the Marriott but that felt too complicated and uncomfortable and I wanted to swim outside. Instead I spent more time in my room. I will not book with Hilton again in the near future when there are so many other choices.

This property is completely rundown and outdated. It needs many upgrades, including fresh carpeting, and a fresh coat of paint. When I was there only one elevator was working. There is a lot of traffic and volume of people. The property was rather noisy. I would not stay here again.

I booked this hotel at the end of a trip for some down time before flying out. I wanted to lounge by the pool and it says outdoor pool. I get all ready and it’s closed. Can’t access pool. Front desk said yah waiting on an inspection!! Post that online! Literally picked the one with the outside pool for a reason! Shampoo and conditioner in shower were empty. Had to go unpack my bag. It’s the little things that actually matter when you’re just wanting to relax

We were really looking forward to using the large outdoor pool, and no where on any site did it say it was closed indefinitely. It hasn’t been open since last year. Price is right for a clean comfortable bed and location convenient to our family.

I rented the room for my Mama for Mothers Day. She drove from another state and it was late night when she checked in. When she pulled the covers back, there was a ponytail holder in the bed. Gross! I phoned the manager the next morning and she said she was on the way up to see it, but my Mother wasn't awake nor did I want to wake her up on Mothers Day morning. The manager said that she would refund expedia and it was up to them to refund me because I booked through them. The room was $223 and I was not satisfied. I have not seen evidence that expedia was refunded nor have I received a refund.

We liked the cleanliness of the hotel. Our room was comfortable, and Zu liked that this room had a tub/shower combo. The in-house breakfast is way overpriced for what is available - no pancake/waffle machine, no biscuits or gravy on the hot bar. That said, we would stay here again and eat breakfast somewhere else. We didn’t eat dinner there, so I can’t comment on that. Staff was friendly.

They messed up my reservation, sent me to a room which was occupied by someone else. Then replaced my double queen with a king size room(3 adults). After I checked out, I realized the print out bill has other people's name with my credit card information. I stayed at this hotel before, had good experience. No idea why this time all messed up.

Upon arrival at the airport I was picked up by the friendly driver Ayauna! She was also the same driver that took me to where I was speaking the following day. The hotel is very clean and the bar was kind enough to take my order for a grilled cheese for dinner. Saturday night there were children running LATE into the evening on the 5th floor and the front desk promptly moved my room after the children continued running in the hallway after 10pm. I would stay here again, the staff is truly lovely.

It appeared average clean and the staff were not welcoming upon arriving. The location is easy access to the airport and other highways for surrounding areas. There was an odd smell in the room the entire stay and every morning the smell from the kitchen filled the room even though it was 4 floors above. Parking is easy and it is a good price for what you get.
