Top Shaw University Hotel Reviews

Sheraton Raleigh Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We only stayed one night but the staff were amazing. The whole facility was clean and well kept. Room was clean and cozy. Would definitely stay again. Also enjoyed the restaurant/bar inside the hotel."

Brand New! Huge 3-bedroom, 2,500 sqft 3rd and 4th floor condo, private rooftop.

8/10 Good

"Overall this property was great. The biggest issue we had was a stain in the entry way that led up the stairs to the living area. It appeared to be dog poop, or something that resembled it. It didn't smell, but looked very gross. The owner told us of it the day we were checking in. Had they said something earlier we would of arranged for alternative lodging. I'm not sure why it wasn't cleaned prior to our arrival except maybe they were going to replace the carpet. Otherwise, the property was great for our family of 4. We were just really grossed out by the stairs. Hopefully they fix it for future renters."

The Sweet Spot in Downtown Raleigh, Come make new memories.

8/10 Good

"The apartment itself is great, but parking was a frustrating problem. I was told we had a spot included, but was asked to pay multiple times. One time I paid a full day as I was in a hurry and could not wait for support via intercom. Other times I was told I would just have to pay and refused while they looked me up in the system. I had the front desk fix my account twice and it worked temporarily and then failed again a few hours later. If you don't mind paying for parking, there is no issue."
