Horror hotel

Upon check-in, we were told that the room I had asked for was not available and they did not have handicapped rooms, I asked for a walk in shower because I had hip surgery . I had also asked for a suite with a sofa, Rashsa, said they didn't have any rooms like that, website says they do. Was given a room 314 top floor, no towels. Coffee pot wasn't working, toaster out of order, no cups,no plates,no silverware, roaches running in the cabinets, ice maker didn't work , THEY GAVE US AN ICE TRAY ,said that's the best they could do. Bathroom had black hair everywhere, I used my dawn dishwash to clean the tub and sink. BEDS WERE VERY OLD, THEY SQUEAK everytime you moved. Metal rusty squeeks. People hanging around smoking pot all night.

100% catfished

The hotel.com photos are not even close to reality! First, I was coming in on business at the last minute and was looking at the photos - I purposely picked this place due to the breakfast photo. None offered! The bathroom was so run down. The tub was dirty - I didn’t even shower. The bedding had stains. The fridge was 100 years old & loud. This place 100% cat fished me! I’ll never be back & so disappointed I wasted over $100 here! The location is also random! By a school. I love the trailer parked in a handicap spot too! Ridiculous.

Bathroom faucets, toilet and tub were not clean. I cleaned myself and so much dirt came off. The kitchen area was also dirty. The room had a terrible smell and the ac worked on and off. We had to sleep with the window open to cool the room down. The beds were super uncomfortable. The staff were rude as I had to argue with them for a room change. After arguing, they allowed the room change but we decided to stay in the room after finding the other room was even dirtier.

Never stay here. Period.

There were roaches and our room was not clean. Makeup was on our comforter when we pulled the cover back. The front desk receptionist was never there. Coffee was cold. Horrible stay everything dirty and rusty. To be in Cary I’m really surprised.

Family time in Cary

It was nice and sufficient, very friendly staff and they were always cleaning, which was good to see! The dishes, utensils, cups are very sparse so if you plan to make a lot of meals, better bring your own or somehow ask them to provide more. Overall very clean, carpet, couch and chairs could use some updating but we would definitely stay here again!
