Raleigh Marriott Crabtree Valley

Enjoyed a nice lunch. The maître d’ /server, Tegest, provided excellent service with a warm, caring attitude.

I liked the pool and the lobby area

I had a room with a balcony which I paid extra for, but there was only a couple of plastic chairs and a cheap table out there that were incredibly dusty. It didn’t look like it had been cleaned in a long time, and with allergy season I didn’t want to go out there. Also, you can just tell that the property is older which is fine, but they need to do touch ups to the paint and interior of the rooms a bit. It was a bit underwhelming for the price I paid. Not to mention all of the fees. It’s ridiculous to have to pay to park at a hotel im already paying to stay at, plus $40 just to check in early?? 3 pm is already a very late check in time, what about people who have events or concerts to go too? I’ve never paid an early check in fee. For those reasons next time I’m in Raleigh, I’m staying somewhere else.

The gym was brand new - excellent!

The surroundings, the property, we were pleaced with everything

Great stay, a few things that could have made it better. The shower water pressure was very low in my room, frustrating to say the least. Many outlets did not work the first day but did my 2nd and 3rd day and I wish I was a little closer to the elevator and higher floor but the view was great, I’m a sucker for a good view. I do want to give a special shout out to Tegest G at the bar. She made my mornings with good conversation, welcoming / warming personality and just a great person. Turned a lower star experience into what it was. Please take care of her, she’s been there for 34years. Make sure 35 is the one to never forget. Jason

Friendly staff, great service!

Always enjoy my stay here, hotel is clean, gym is well equipped and the staff are wonderful. The front desk staff are very friendly and thoughtful and the restaurant staff are great - I enjoy my chats with Tegest each morning when I grab my coffee, she is a joy.

Location was wonderful

Quiet and very clean

Attended the Rural Center Conference and Tegest G helped me make my day even better simply by pausing her busy day to help me with some hot water for my tea. It was a small and easy thing for her but it helped make my morning of rushing around to conference sessions and meeting with colleagues a little bit smoother. Thank you.
