La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Raleigh Downtown North

8/10 Good

"Theres no Hot Tub that I saw. The shower was amazing but there could have been brighter lights in the bathroom and the room. It was not really bright. The bed was also comfortable. I would stay there again. "

Sonesta Select Raleigh Durham Airport Morrisville

4/10 Poor

"Staff is pleasant and rooms as pictured, shuttle is easy....But BEWARE! We utilized Sonesta's paid parking program while we traveled. This location has NO CAMERAS, our vehicle was vandalized, broken into and personal items stolen. Also insufficient lighting and no security personnel. Even though the hotel takes all your information, they never even let us know what happened when we checked in. Police were called at some point, incident report created and window was taped up. No hotel apologies. Stay/Park/Fly is a great program, just choose another hotel!"
