We've stayed at this hotel a number of times and I will say it's always been good for myself or my whole family..

However this time was a little different experience...

First of all, the hotel is just about to wrap up a renovation and you can tell by all the stickers on all the doors letting you know of that...

However, it is not written on the Hilton Website about the renovation...

We were given an upgrade (which was very appreciated) to a suite with the whirlpool..

During the course of our stay, a unfamiliar odor came about the room and I was unable to locate the source of the odor...however it was reported to the front desk..

As well, the frying pan that was left clean in the dishwasher, showed lots of signs of use and wear..(especially rust on the handle) and fork marks in the inner part of the frying pan...

I was also stuck on the elevator on the night I was there in between floors but after waiting a minute or so, its shook and made a noise then started going again (I again reported it to the front desk)...

However, this was just an isolated event, since we've never had any issues before so these things do happen, we will return again..

This is a great place, and is located right off I-40 and is located less then 5 minutes from PNC Arena and about 10-15 minutes from Crabtree Valley Mall,.

Around the hotel there is basically nothing, you have to go into Cary or Crabtree for shopping or eating...just for FYI...

Breakfast is your normal buffet affair and the hotel also offers an fitness center and outdoor pool..

During the warmer months, there are outside seating and BBQ's there for use...
