Room, very good; one restaurant failing
Pros:

Let’s start with the good stuff:
1. The staff is very professional and competent.
2. The room possessed excellent accommodations with a comfortable bed.
3. It was very clean.

Now, some other stuff:
1. It would be nice if there was a night light in the bathroom to provide some room
illumination to the room with the bathroom door cracked.
2. A clock would also be a plus. Yes, cell phones do provide alarm and time
information, but, you can’t just open your eyes at 2:00 am and see what time it is.
3. All the offerings provided to 7 us in the restaurant were pretty good, EXCEPT one,
the Rubin sandwich. This “House Specialty” menu item was the absolute worst Rubin
I have had in over 60 years of Rubin sandwiches eaten all over the U.S. and other
countries. The bread was soggy, the “Swiss” cheese was tasteless, the sauerkraut
was mostly absent and the corned beef was more tasteless than store brand, and it
should have been “shaved” instead of “thinly” sliced….. corned beef can be stringy,
shaving eliminates that issue and allows for a more even distribution on the
“toasted” rye bread……the 1,000 Island dressing was the only almost bright spot.

Apex / Fayetteville Area
Pros:

Exceptionally clean hotel with an outstanding staff and the front desk and the bar/restaurant. They provided an EXCELLENT Guest Experience!!!

The room was clean, spacious, and well-appointed. Food at the bar/restaurant was very good and the Service was top-notch.

This was my first stay, but it will definitely be my preferred hotel when working with clients in Apex and Fayetteville areas.

Pros:

Everything was great. The staff were great. They texted to make sure we didn't need anything.

Cons:

We didn't hang the DND sign so housekeeping knocked on our door then entered then returned an hour or so late knocking again.

Comfortable Bed, Clean, and Close to great stores.
Pros:

The cleanliness and comfort of the room! I wish the shower was a tad bigger but the water was good and HOT!!
