Avoid this MainStay Suites at all costs.

This place is falling apart. Stains on all of the floor carpets in every hallway. Elevator & every wall shows heavy damage. Only one of our two door keys worked. Our kitchen floor was sticky with who knows what. It has a large breakfast area with only coffee and hot water and a tiny "No Breakfast" sign. I have no idea how this location retains the MainStay Suites branding.

The hotel was extremely loud and my room was dirty and had roaches climbing on the walls. The shower nozzle hadn’t been clean with mold. Also had an old wash rag that was hanging on the shower rod . I need to fully reimbursed for my stay at this hotel! Total inexcusable

Nice place to stay

Room temperature was very good as air conditioning was on. Clean room and bathroom. Not a lot of activity in hallways as I had a dog, he stayed quiet for the most part. Dog fee is $50 additional at check in and $10 per night. A little steep but is what it is. Bed was fine. Not super plush but I wasn’t uncomfortable. Full size refrigerator, sink, a nice little kitchen if you’re staying for a bit. Safe outside as your in Cary NC. Good stay.

DO NOT STAY HERE!!! there are roaches. not only when we got there was the room gross. like dirty gross. the floor in the kitchen area was coming up, sticky, and the carpet had not been vacuumed in a while. the bathroom tube had gross stains and the floor was yellow. (was supposed to be white) the walls in the all had disgusting stains on them. the second night we were there we were walking back into the hotel and there were giant bugs outside. i thought maybe water bugs. but then we got into the hotel and there welder tiny light brown roaches in the hall way. we then got into our room and there was a roach ON THE WALL! there was no one at the front desk so we killed it. went through our stuff and took it to the car. the next morning when we told the staff they said sorry and then checked us out. i am fully disgusted and uncomfortable. please don’t stay here if you enjoy being clean.

Nice for an overnight - coming in from out of town and it made bringing a few snacks for the road a smart idea because of the kitchen like facilities.
