Top Wake Forest University Hotel Reviews

Suburban Studios Winston Salem-University Parkway

10/10 Excellent

"I choose this site because it was 6.2 miles from the Forsyth Medical Center. I live too far away so I needed a room. It was clean and well cared for. The parking lot is lite up, fully, with LED lighting a night. Handicap parking. Parking in front of the rooms. The room was neat & spotless, no bugs either. There is a small burea, a shelf over it; a table & 2 chairs; nice size refrigerator; 2 coiled areas to cook on a counter with a sink; storage cabinets; full bathroom with out stains; no pealing paint on walls/clean and cared for. The staff are friendly & helpful. They are working on it constantly. The price is correct for a minimalist room. No breakfast, no pool, just a basic room. Great if it’s all you need or want. I would 100% stay there again. I felt safe & thankful."
