Woodcrest Vacations from $263

We loved the attention and the friendliness of the staff. The room was in great condition and clean. Nice size fridge and microwave. The outside is very well illuminated and the parking area feels safe.

A Wonderful Stay – Highly Recommended! I had an amazing experience at this hotel from start to finish. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, always going out of their way to ensure guests felt welcome. The room was spotless, spacious, and very comfortable, with all the amenities I needed for a relaxing stay. The location was perfect — close to restaurants, shops, and local attractions. I especially appreciated the quiet atmosphere, which made it easy to unwind after a busy day. Breakfast was delicious with plenty of options, and the service throughout was top-notch. I will definitely be coming back and recommending this hotel to friends and family. Five stars!

Solid new build in downtown Raleigh. Very comfortable and convenient.

This is definitely a mid-grade property with mid-grade accommodations and service. Check-in was easy but the staff didn’t go out of their way to make you feel welcome. My son and I were given room 209 and as soon as I walked up to the door I had concerns about security. The door jamb had been forced by a pry bar or similar tool to the point that you could see the latches for the door through the caved in part on the jamb. No excuse for keeping this room in service. Fix the jamb and make your guests feel safe. I took a photo and will try to share. I didn’t ask for another room because we were able to secure the door but I took all valuables with me every time I left the room. The room was spacious with a fridge and coffee pot but dated for sure. Breakfast was more basic than most that I’ve had over my years of travel and the selection dwindles quick with only minimal restock. Stay away from the biscuits, they taste like whatever was used to clean the pan. The selling point of this hotel is its convenience to Duke University and the availability of dining and shopping options within a 5-10 minute drive. Final thought on the property is that they advertise as 100% smoke free and even have a sign posted in the driveway but no attempt was made to enforce this as I observed several folks smoking outside and right in front of the sign that said “No Smoking.”

Nice hotel. The airport transportation and $5 a night parking was a great find. The hotel let us park for over 2 weeks. Fresh coffee in the lobby before 5:00am.
