MainStay Suites Raleigh - Cary

Very clean, very comfortable. Good neighborhood The towels were a little stiff and felt a little damp upon arrival

Staff was great

Its a halfway house and it is deplorable to ever be advertised as a place to stay. Aggressive ghetto reception was arguing with a woman about monthly rent. After 15 minutes I asked about my reservation and she got upset raised her voice and aggressive attitude towards me. It was ghetto, a travelers worst nightmare and broken dishwashers in the lobby.

The front desk receptionist Mrs. B , checked me in. She is very funny n kind I didn't like the overall hotel, everything is outdated, carpets need to be changed, toilet wouldn't flush, wall need to be painted. I only reason I stayed was bkuz it was non-refundable.

In the room, there was black hair on the sheets, on the pillows, on the towels, inside the bathtub, and the pillows smelled bad as if someone had already used them. It was very uncomfortable to stay in that bed, but I went to look for the person at the front desk and they weren't there, and it was already very late, so I had to stay there for the night. Very bad nightmare

Passable

Liked the kitchen amenities

Bed bugs present. Did not stay but still paid. So unhappy this location looked fine but take caution. Please check behind headboards and check boxsprings. Good luck. Again I did not stay. The bed bugs scared me.

N/A The room didn’t have pots and pans to cook. The ice maker wasn’t connected and telephone didn’t work in room. Shower head was molded need to be changed.

It was close to where I needed to be Room was filthy. Ceiling in bathroom was falling on us. A/C leaked and left carpet soaking wet in over half the room. No blow dryer and they couldn’t provide one. Found multiple dead roaches in hallways,lobby. Trash all over outside of hotel. Lots of people loitering outside throughout the evening/night. Did not feel safe walking outside after dark. Staff was nice but not helpful.

Nothing The a.c unit was blowing out hot air all day. The bathrooms have no fans

Exceptional

But upon entering into the second room, smh. Omg! The smoke detector was hanging out the wall. The a/c was broken, and the water was rusted when pouring. Seemed like they downgraded me in terms of the quality of the room?! Then I found smudges of what seemed like blood AGAIN on the comforter set!!! I was too tired to complain, so I waited upon checking out to say something. Seems as though no one is cleaning the comforter sets in these rooms! This is the short cut I was referring to in the hotel industry. I see why I only did 4/5 star hotels. There is a clear difference! This is what I get for being CHEAP! Never again. OH AND THEY DONT SERVE BREAKFAST, ONLY COFFEE. Thank u to the lady at the front desk. She tried to help me but I want a partial REFUND. I’ve spent too much money to be sleeping on dirty linen.

They did not offer breakfast

Very good

Location is awesome and having a kitchenette was cool. Full size fridge. This would be useful for an extended stay. They did not offer breakfast

Poor

Convenient location, not very noisy, economically priced

Nothing The smell, the cleanliness, the staff, everything.
