Comfort Suites Raleigh Walnut Creek
"Great location for going to coastal Walnut Creek amphitheater. Clean and easy check in. A little noisy but from outside sources not the hotel. Love the frig and microwave and my room had a wet bar."

Americas Best Value Inn Raleigh
"Definitely not up to par. But needed a cheap room for the night and yup that’s what we got. At least the sheets and bathroom appeared clean but there was a very very dirty chair in the corner of the room with a light bulb that changed colors like at a rave. Would not stay again"
