Red Roof PLUS+ Raleigh Downtown - NCSU/Conv Center

This hotel is a little way out from the immediate downtown area, but it was easy to get around with public transport nearby. The hotel itself was very clean, and the staff were incredibly supportive and friendly throughout my stay. I also had a nice view from my room, and the fact that there's a walking trail nearby was a fantastic bonus for unwinding after a busy day. The Verified Wi-Fi was reliable, and I appreciated the free coffee in the lobby to start the mornings . Highly recommend for a comfortable, budget-friendly stay near Raleigh!

I had items in my room that went missing and some of the employees were not respectful

100% Smoke free property, unless of course, you’re friends with the receptionist.. then it’s totally fine to smoke inside! Absolutely tacky start to our check-in. Not a good part of Raleigh either, high crime area and homeless. Our party was traveling for business, and had we been given ample time to find lodging, I would’ve chosen anywhere but here. You REALLY get what you pay for. No microwave or fridge, no hot water, and a very outdated, dirty room overall. Red Roof is a hit or miss, and this one missed by far.

I love the red roof

Restroom reeked of urine. Multiple long hairs found in the bathroom, and one on the bedroom door. Stagnant musky smell from the AC unit. I'd rather park in the parking lot and sleep in my car. At least now I know to avoid this chain at all cost.

Room was full of cockroaches disgusting. There must have been dog pee on the carpet with urine stench.
