La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Raleigh Durham Intl AP
Room was clean and staff were fantastic. 2 complaints tho. 1 rust in the bathtub was unsightly and can be somewhat cleaned. There was smell of weed/marijuana at the entrance but it seemed more outside than inside and I suspect it was a guest not staff. Beds and room were clean and nice. Breakfast ...
