Walnut Creek Vacation Packages

There was no one at the front desk when we checked in and we had to wait a while for someone to appear. The elevator was not functioning when we checked out.

I stay at this hotel every month when I travel for work. While I have some complaints about the rooms, I still choose to stay here for price and convenience. None of the things I mention are so bad to deter me from staying here. There is a Marriott nextdoor that I stay in as well if it’s cheaper at the time. The location is convenient in downtown Raleigh, and there are many restaurants nearby. There is a restaurant and bar within the hotel, and they have a cafe in the mornings for coffee. Parking is across the street, and it’s $20/nt. There is a public garage directly adjacent to it that has free overnight parking, unless there is an event. The rooms are generally very clean, and the bedding is always fresh and comfortable; but it is time for a refresh. The bathroom could use a remodel or a deep clean of the shower head, tiles/grout, caulking, and walls. This seems to be consistent for all the rooms I’ve stayed in here. There have been a few rooms where the thermostat did not work. Despite being set at the lowest temperature possible (64*), it didn’t get any colder in the room. One room was HOT all night during the summer. The hot water took 15 minutes to come on in one room. I waited for it to get warm for 10 minutes before I relented and showered with freezing cold water. Thankfully, at the very end, some warm water came through to warm me up just as I was finishing. This was a one-time experience in one room, though. I still choose to stay here despite these things.

The rooftop bar is very nice.

Excellent, friendly staff, delish food, luxury and relaxation, spa was top notch. Very accommodating hotel and spa.

The property was generally clean, pleasant, and about 5 minutes from RDU airport. Good for a stay when you need to be near the airport especially for an early morning flight. Our first room had an AC unit that squealed horribly. Maintenance was unable to resolve so we moved to a different room. The gym is small and had a strong musty/mildewy smell. It was bad enough I elected not to do my usual workout routine. The breakfast was the real disappointment, especially since it was $15 per person. Eggs were overcooked, tasteless and rubbery. The breakfast sausages were truly inedible. Oatmeal is usually a safe last option, but the cook forgot to make it. The only two bright spots were the fresh melon and the bagels. Certainly not worth the price.
