Hilton Raleigh North Hills
The rooms were very spacious and clean. Good job cleaning ladies. My dog loved it! I would definitely stay again. The TV was glitching, but other than that, we had a wonderful time.

Very nice hotel and the staff were very friendly. Only issues were the parking situation (very limited spots available) and the bed was not very comfortable. It was fine for a one night stay!
