Raleigh Marriott Crabtree Valley

Raleigh Marriott Crabtree Valley

10/10 Excellent
"Convenient location to walk to Crabtree Mall or to get to the 540, 440, 40, RTP, Briercreek. The room & bathroom were clean, as was the entire hotel. We didn’t use the pool, gym, bar or restaurant. Parking was convenient and very short walk into the hotel. The only issue we had was the attitude of the Receptionist (Sarah), she was not welcoming & had no professional grace. A sad start but we didn’t interact with her again."
