This hotel met or exceeded everything I needed. The room was large and clean. It had a full size refrigerator and furnished kitchenette, with stove, microwave and dishes. The room was quiet and I was undisturbed by the outdoor concert at the college a quarter mile away. The in-room ethernet cable was great and better than WiFi. The staff was friendly and attentive. The free breakfast buffet was great and the guest laundry room was handy as well. I will definitely be staying here again.

Positives: Clean, spacious room, many amenities, quiet, and secure.

Negatives: Located in a business park with other hotels. Difficult to find at night, even with GPS.

It is an extended stay hotel, so our room was spacious with a kitchen. Great if you're staying long term and aren't looking for an updated or attractive room.

Positives: I liked that they offered free breakfast, even though we did not take advantage of this option.

Negatives: The hotel room had an awful smell.

What a great place! Quiet, pleasant, and friendly. The free pass, and the health spa across the street was a total surprise. We have never seen such a beautiful spa. Hot tubs as big as living rooms, kiddie pools, twisty slides, lap pools, dry steam saunas, smoothie bars, massage, beauty salons, and state of the art exercise equipment. Just amazing!

Positives: Loved the hotels partnership with the health spa across the street. It was fabulous. Very friendly staff.

Negatives: Everything was lovely.

This time the breakfast was disappointing. Waffle iron was broken, pancakes were not good. I do enjoy the room and relaxing there. Wish there were more specials.

I love staying here, but many times it does not appear when I try for the 1/2 price. We did live in that area and have family and friends, but like to stay here when we go.

Positives: I liked the convenience not only in location, but the room itself. Kitchen is great and a fireplace.

Negatives: The room needs a more comfortable chair. I am short and the chairs are too large.

Excellent place to stay for several days. As we have to go to the area for health problems, we really need this special rate and like a clean environment in which to stay. We like the brightness of the rooms and convenience. We use to live in this area and really enjoy coming back here.

Positives: After a problem with the A/C, the staff was very helpful. Hope to come here often.

Negatives: Noise from other rooms/animal growled at me in hallway.

Continuation of problem. The cig. Smoke continued for about 10-15 minutes and then cleared. I felt like the person putting the bill under the door was probably smoking, but was told the next day that it could not have been. They claim the vents brought the smoke from another room. I had not smelled smoke before or ever when staying here. I am highly allergic to cig. Smoke and was very upset. Also there were hairs on the floor in the bath. I really like this place and would like to go back, but they did not take my complaint seriously.

Positives: The convenience to Cary, a kitchen.

Negatives: This was a non-smoking hotel, at 1:00 AM my room was engulfed with cig. Smoke. I complained because my bill was put under my door at the exact time,

I really enjoyed this hotel and hope I get this one next time I go to carry. We go for business and pleasure as we use to live there.

Positives: This was my first experience with residence. I was impressed and enjoyed having a kitchen and the excellent continental breakfast.

Negatives: Parking was a problem. Not enough. Noise through the walls was a problem.

One of the nicest places I have stayed in years. Clean, friendly, lots of parking, great price. Anyone in Raleigh should definitely try to find this place, as good a value as it gets!

Positives: Just about everything. Clean, comfortable, great area.

Negatives: Not as easy to find as some motels.

This was a great experience to stay here. Appliances were mostly full-sized in the suite. It was clean and the staff was friendly, especially the free hot breakfast staff and the evening happy hour staff.

Positives: Great food in the morning, fun happy hour in the evening. (all complimentary).

Negatives: I wish it had two double beds instead of a single in the suite.

Reviewer: Not provided on Sat 16 Dec 2006 rated 9 out of 10.

This hotel is great. They have a great helpful staff. The breakfast buffet was a plus. The room I had was very nice and comfortable. It was like being home for me and my girlfriend. If I had to stay anywhere in Raleigh or carry again I would stay in the residence inn.

Positives: The hotel was like home away from home for me.

Negatives: Can't think of anything.
