Hyatt Place Raleigh-Durham Airport
The rooms appear outdated in person than in photos. Some of the outlets didn’t work. The bathroom was quite small. And worst part was the toilet did not properly flush. It ended up getting clogged and we couldn’t find anyone to help. One positive is that they offer free breakfast.

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Univ Area Chapel Hill
This feels more like a highway motel. It needs refurbishment urgently. The breakfast is horrible: felt like powdered scrambled eggs - in paper plates. Old carpets. Smell in rooms. And they charge for giving you the room check-in at noon even when they have availability.

Microtel Inn by Wyndham Raleigh Durham Airport
Wifi didn't work the whole time we were there ( 6 days). Not a lot of breakfast options. Staff was nice and polite. Liked that there was a laundry room available for us. Check out time was a big plus! 11am!

Quality Inn & Suites Apex - Holly Springs
The staff was helpful and friendly, the bathroom door wouldn't shut in our room. It may have been because it was graduation weekend, but it was overpriced for what you get. If the price is usually lower, I would recommend staying if you're working. I wouldn't recommend for
