Musty odor
Renovated motel. Not terrible, but not really clean either. We didn’t complain much because we were only staying room for a few hours. My wife and daughter wouldn’t even use shower.

Good concept, but no frills and can be noisy
Was in town for the women’s NCAA soccer championship in neighboring Cary. The hotel is a repurposed Travelodge but thankfully none of the corridors where rooms are located are exposed to the elements. Each hallway has a water/ice station which works very well for filling water bottles. The room was just the right size for a solo traveler and had some good amenities, including earplugs which came in handy. If you have a room parallel to Dawson St, you will have vehicular noise at all hours of the night (and also I could hear noise from other rooms/the bar late into the night). In the mornings there is free coffee in the bar area along with pastries for purchase, but you will have to go outside to get there (which is not ideal if it is freezing outside). The first morning I was there they were out of pastries by 7:15, but the second morning I had a very good apple turnover. If you’re looking for something more substantial, however, you’ll have to go elsewhere. Location-wise, the state capitol grounds and most of Raleigh’s attractions are about a 15-minute walk away and there are good places to eat nearby. Overall, I would stay here again because of the location and relative price compared to the other options in the area.
The intersection of Dawson and Lane can be quite noisy

Friendly, cute hotel
We had a great stay the night before Thanksgiving. Lauren at the front desk went above and beyond trying to find us someplace open on Thanksgiving to watch the football game. I had a yummy cocktail from the cute little bar. Would definitely stay again if in the area.

The ambiance of the property is very friendly and modern. Everyone was welcoming! The room was spacious and clean. Having the attached bar was extremely nice. The check in/out process was seamless. They also give a personal touch by calling & texting about FAQs, your reservation, etc. The accessibility and convenience set this hotel apart from others. Even though this is has high traffic it was surprisingly quiet. I will be staying here again the next time I’m in Raleigh!

Nicely restored mid century motel/hotel; very clean. Room decor seemed a bit spartan and would’ve liked a little pastry included with morning coffee. Seems like almost everything here has been monetized.
