Great long weekend in Raleigh!
We enjoyed our stay tremendously! Rewarded by the nicely furnished space, loved the proximity to downtown, and welcomed the morning sunshine on the deck. King bed was so, so comfortable! Access to the washer and dryer allowed us to head home with a clean suitcase of clothes. Thanks, Stacey, for helping to make our stay in Raleigh the best!

It was decent
The place seems newly renovated and clean. The listing said 2 bathrooms... It's a small place and seemed only one unless the Master bathroom is somewhere in the bedroom I stayed in and just didn't see it. Also there was definitely no bidet or I would have used it. There was very very little soap left in the hand soap dispenser. I informed the property manager and was told a new one would be dropped off, but I did not see it dropped off anywhere. Some of the lamps did not want to work regardless of the lightswitch being in or not. The area is decently close to downtown Convention center, which was what I wanted. It was very lively though and did not feel like an area I'd take a calming walk around alone at night. I did not need to use the closets, washer/dryer, or coffee pot so I assume those are fine as well. The property definitely needs more blankets for sitting on the couch or chair. Overall decent. Listing needs to be updated accurately.

Clean house
The house was clean. It appeared as though it had been recently renovated. The neighbor was a sweet gentleman. The coffee maker didnt work and was promptly replaced. Check in via email was simple.
