NATION'S INN of Wake County - Raleigh Crabtree

The staff, an indian man at the check in counter was really nice. Other than that, unfortunately everything else was very dissapointing. Yes, I know this is a basic hotel. But everything seemed poor maintenance. 1. The toilet was dirty. It had stain on it, we checked in late and there was no phone to call front desk, so I cleaned it myself n then the flush wasn't working properly too. Since it was a one night stay, we made do with it. It was a pain, flushing few times after every use. The toilet itself looked so dirty overall. I didn't shower as the towels looked bad too. 2. The breakfast area was so tiny. Only one table for maybe 4 people to sit. Ok maybe the idea is grab and go. But atleast have the bread or butter stocked up. There was just 2 slices of bread and 3 small butter and jam sticks. It looked pathetic. There was waffle and coffee machine but that's it. Nothing else. 3. This place is definitely not for a family to put up for even a one night stay. I've stayed in basic hotels for one night stays and never had complaint, but this place was so bad. 4. The room had bad flooring, the vinyl was already broken and coming off. The room we booked was smoking room by accident. But when the front staff told me I should I have selected for non smoking with kids, I agreed I made a blunder but thought for just one night it should be ok. I ventilated the room and sprayed the air refresher but the bedding had the stench and holes. No proper care for their room overall.

One of the beds wasn't entirely clean and the floors were dirty, this was an emergency pick because of scheduling issues with the hotel.

Dirty sticky floor, litter behind bedside drawer and other “corners”. Breakfast ended before announced time.

Check-in took over 20 minutes. Room was dirty. Holes in the walls.
