Super 8 Raleigh Downtown

Room smelled like smoke despite claiming it to be a non smoking room. No trash bin in the room at all. Cigarette burns on bed sheets. There were three adults in the party; we only got towels for two. Still waiting on those towels. We only stayed here for the night because the snowstorm left us with no power or heat.

Ghetto, dirty, funny smell dead bugs smashed on the wall. Dirty bath tub. The bed sheets looked old. Hole in the popcorn ceiling. Lobby was dingy and breakfast area was not one to get excited about. No microwave or fridge. Sanitation rate is 73.0. Besides all that its worth 58 dollars

no fridge & microwave in single rooms. who doesn’t wanna reheat food or hav a cold beverage when they getta room??? so we paid $ 11 extra for a dbl room. only dbls & king rooms get the luzury of hot food & cold beverages. the housekeepers kinda suck cuz the bathroom was dirty. there was a used razor on the bathtub *GAG* yuck. also we saw 2 roaches in our room. I’m thinkn we will pass on the free breakfast in the morning. who knows if sum critters crawled around the breakfast. this motels not the worst but its Def not the best. the front desk ppl were nice as we checked in so I guess that’s a plus.

We stayed here again for Phish and had a better experience than our previous, slightly gross experience. The room was clean (–er) and the rest of the crowd was (a little) less rowdy, mainly because it was only about half filled. There were dudes with balloons and tanks there in the early morning after the show. Seems that the Phish crowd is more into comfortable hotels than sketchy motels.
My previous impression of it as a scuzzy but cheap place is not changed. This is still not a place you want to bring your family if a show’s in town. But I came out this time feeling not at all disgusted, and that’s an improvement and even a value for this price.
