MainStay Suites Raleigh North

Hotel was clean and staff were quite polite. However, some items were missing from rooms, like conditioner and body wash for shower. Was told if needed pots and pans would need to borrow these from the front desk. No ice machine - was told there was an ice tray in fridge freezer in room but there wasn't. Not very secure around entry doors, didnt need a room card to swipe in.

Just keep scrolling. This is not the hotel you want. We booked 2 nights but left after one night. It wasn't good. But the lobby is nice, they remodeled at some point.. The hallways stink. Literally. The rooms are cold and uncomfortable. They look NOTHING like the pictures. The vibe you get from the rooms is grim. If "drug rehab halfway house" is what you're looking for, then you found it. We had a suite with a full kitchen. There wasn't a single utensil, plate or cup. Not even a plastic disposable cup to drink out of. The TV worked...so that was good? There was a coffee maker in the room, but no coffee to make in it and no cup to drink out of. There was a guy asking for money outside of the hotel and when I came back later he was hanging out with the desk clerk in the lobby. This is also the first hotel I have ever stayed in that required my wife to provide a copy of her driver's license. There were signs everywhere about rules for "guests." All guests must register with the front desk, so I guess they must have a problem with "guests" that people pay to stay with them. Just stay away. It's bad.
