I had a nice stay overall at this hotel. The room was clean and well-equipped, although it felt a bit tight and was close to the elevator, which made it noisy. The hotel's location is super convenient for quick trips to the airport, but there wasn't much to do in the immediate area. Some improvements in service and room comfort would be appreciated, but the price was reasonable for what I got.

This hotel has maintained its clean and spacious rooms over the years, which I appreciate. However, the dining has declined significantly, and I found it disappointing, especially during my recent stay at a convention. The location is somewhat isolated, making it tough to find good food options outside the hotel. While the staff is generally friendly, communication issues arose during catering, particularly concerning food allergies, which is concerning for future visits.

While the hotel's staff were exceptionally helpful and the beds were incredibly comfortable, the overall experience was marred by the outdated facilities and poorly maintained rooms. Though it’s conveniently located near RDU airport, the noise from the heating system and lack of proper lighting in the rooms made it challenging to fully enjoy my stay. It's a decent place for a short visit but definitely needs some updates.

The rooms, while spacious enough, felt quite dated and didn’t offer adequate lighting, which made it hard to work or relax during the day. The heating system was also quite loud, which could be disruptive.

The hotel overall has decent facilities, but they are in dire need of modernization as many aspects still feel stuck in the past.

This hotel has a couple of standout features, notably its friendly staff and convenient location. However, the dining experience has seen better days, which is disappointing compared to the past. While the rooms are comfortable, they could use some updates and better maintenance. Overall, if you're heading to a conference, it might still serve your needs, but be prepared for some inconsistency.

The overall quality of dining has taken a downturn; past experiences of great brunches now seem like a distant memory. The convention meals did not meet expectations, with some guests even experiencing allergy issues due to miscommunication.
