Microtel Inn & Suites by Wyndham Raleigh

Fair
Traveller Type: family with young children
  : We liked that it was secure especially given the area. The room was clean, everything worked. Night desk guy was super friendly and accommodating!
  : The area was absolutely horrible! Not hotels fault think they are doing what they can! The city should address that level of vagrancy! Some maybe homeless, others drove there, ride motorcycles etc! Guy riding a dirt bike up and down side road doing wheelies all night no shirt no shoes on main highway doing same, openly drinking on the city street everywhere, reeked of pot, trash, shopping carts, people loitering hanging out everywhere. The hotel is fine but the area absolutely not safe! Shame on the city for allowing this! They literally are just congregating to buy and sell drugs, trash the whole area and have a block party all night every night and city allows this! We took our child for a ball tournament so we had no idea about the area and I never dreamed a city would just allow a free for all shootings, prostitution drugs and I saw not a single LE car none the entire time we were there! They argue, yell etc This was a terrifying area, never again! Inside the hotel did feel safe and I do believe they do what they can but the minute you step out side, dangerous! Next time my child plays ball there, we will stay way outside the city or just drive the nearly 4 hours!
