Southeast Raleigh Vacation Packages

What a waste of money. First punishment for using Expedia a $10 charge to park in a parking with huge posts. BTW parking is free if you book on the University Inn site. You had to really look at what you are doing or you would ding your car or someone else's in the forced-paid parking lot. Next no breakfast. I forget the exact cost of the room but it was about $150 a night and they were too cheap to offer breakfast so we spent $4 for two muffins and $3 for a small bottle of orange juice for breakfast. Also no tea or coffee or sugar in the room. And no coffee pot other than downstairs. The bed had a foam mattress. My husband, with his bad back found it extremely uncomfortable. The pillows were enormous about the size of a kitchen trash can. I wonder who can sleep using them? I slept flat on the bed with no pillow as there was no other option. Lots of light in the room and noise in the halls and I could not figure out how to access the local TV stations. The main positive is a "free" shuttle to the Duke Medical Center. The second night we stayed at La Quinta Inn in Durham. It was about $30 cheaper per night with free parking, breakfast, and a much more comfortable room. Oh BTW Duke has parking garages so no need to stay at University Inn for the "free" shuttle.

Better breakfast

The rooms are clean and organized very well, but there is construction going on and also you have to pay for parking if you’re not a Marriott Bonvoy member the hotel restaurant has one person handling reservations, seating the bar busing tables taking orders no help

The apartment was very clean and comfortable, and was very well-appointed (dishes, glassware, blankets, etc.). The location was great, and the view from the balcony was amazing. We highly recommend staying here, and we’d consider staying here again when we go back to Raleigh.

Check in time is 4pm... We arrived at 6pm and only 1 of our rooms was ready so we had to separate.. Requested for a minimum of 5 towels and wash clothes. We received them,,,but house keeping left them on the dirty carpet outside in the hallway.. Hallways and elevators are Hot.. We got through all this,,,but the icing on the cake is they have someone working there stealing card numbers. Food was bought within the hotel with my card number that I did not buy. I found this out 2 days after checkout. I talked to the account manager as was told it would be looked into. Had to shut my card down with my bank. Reached out to corporate and "they take this very seriously ". After 14 days,,,crickets!! No return calls or follow up emails. I would NOT trust this Hotel. They have a criminal inside and wont do the right thing. Be Aware!!
