No regrets
We didn't really stay -- checked out five minutes after we checked in and were comfortable forfeiting the $120. With the neighborhood, condition of the premises, attitude of the staff, and overall vibe, we just didn't feel safe so we bailed. This is also the last time I prepay through a travel site like hotels.com. I made the mistake of prioritizing proximity to Wake Forest University over hotel quality.

Hit or miss w cleanliness
Whole room smelled of dogs even the pillows. Bathtub still had hair all over. Shower curtain stained from mold and meldew. Shower broke so water still ran from bottom faucet. House keeping bangs on every door at 9am so hard to sleep in.

Horrible staff! We stayed for 4 days with our two young children. We asked the staff everyday, several times to clean our room, especially that our garbage was full of dirty diapers. We had to stay in a dirty room, full of dirty towels. Phone was also not working in our room, so we had to get down to get anything we needed with two kids. Moreover during our check in, the lady at the front desk wanted to charge us again although we had payed online and said that she is not able to accommodate us. They suddenly another person comes and said it went through and she was able to give us a room.

I tried to reach out to an Expedia agent after finding the pool was closed to cancel my reservation and had to book a room across the street to have use of a pool in a 90 degree day. There was a homeless person staying all 3 nights in the parking lot if the hotel.
