The Spotlight on Suburban Studios Raleigh - Crabtree Valley

Laid-back comfort with room to crash after the show

Modern and practical, Suburban Studios Raleigh - Crabtree Valley is a budget-friendly extended stay hotel located just outside downtown Raleigh. Just a short drive from local music venues and the Crabtree Valley Mall, it’s ideal for concert-goers looking for a quiet, affordable place to unwind. With fully equipped kitchenettes in every room and free WiFi, this hotel offers comfort and convenience without the downtown price tag.

Why Concert-goers love it

This hotel is a great choice if you're catching a show in Raleigh and want to avoid the chaos of downtown after the encore. It’s just minutes from several local venues by car, and the free onsite parking makes late-night returns hassle-free. The quiet residential setting is perfect for decompressing post-show, and the 24-hour front desk means you’re not stressing about late check-ins.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends who want to save money and cook meals together
  • Solo travelers attending a bucket-list concert
  • Couples looking for a chill weekend with live music
  • Fans who value peace and quiet after a loud night
  • Budget-conscious travelers who still want clean, reliable comfort

Food and Drink Options

You’ll find a free grab-and-go breakfast every morning — think breakfast bars, muffins, hot cereal, and coffee — which hits the spot after a late night. While there’s no on-site restaurant, your in-room kitchenette (with fridge, stovetop, microwave, and toaster) gives you total control over late-night snacks. Plus, the hotel is near Crabtree Valley Mall, so dining options are just a few minutes away.

Nightlife Options

Though the hotel itself is quiet and doesn’t offer live entertainment, you’re a short Uber or drive away from Raleigh’s buzzing bar and music scene. Catch a set downtown, then retreat to your peaceful room for the night. Win-win.

What People Say

Guests appreciate the spacious rooms, kitchen facilities, and overall value. Many mention the friendly front desk staff and convenient location, especially for those with cars. It’s not fancy, but it’s clean, practical, and reliable — just what you need after a night out.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests note that the property could use a bit of updating, and daily housekeeping isn’t included unless you pay extra. If you’re expecting luxury, this isn’t it — but for the price, it delivers where it counts.

The Bottom Line

If you’re heading to Raleigh for a concert and want a budget-friendly, no-fuss stay with room to relax post-show, Suburban Studios Raleigh - Crabtree Valley hits all the right notes.

I would never stay there...

Liked: The location was great and the value for an overnight stay, including the refrigerator.
Disliked: The place was run down, facilities tore up and no ice maker. The standard of cleanliness was bad also. The place has potential, if facility were renovated.

Would not recommend staying here.

Liked: The landscaping was decent. This was the only thing about the stay.
Disliked: Disgusting. Room did not feel or smell clean. Needs complete remodel. Pungent odors from weed and cigarette smoke. Mold under caulking on tub. Sheets and towels are paper thin. Screaming and arguing were constant from downstairs residents.

Bad management

Liked: I liked the quite location
Disliked: I didn't like being kicked out at 9am because the woman that was there saw my reservation and decided not to accept it. Then she called the cops on me to have me remove for not paying for a night and wouldn't let me pay at desk or accept my prepaid reservation.

Absolutely Horrible

Liked: Nothing
Disliked: When I went to my first room it was flooded i almost fell. That should’ve been a red flag right there. I get another room and go in and first thing I see is a roach in the bathtub smh. The beds stink and are stained. The beds are also hard couldn’t sleep whatsoever. The whole time I was there I was being charged on my credit card different amounts. Idk this place is sketchy and I just had a bad vibe and experience the whole weekend. Would definitely not recommend staying here. Oh and side note there was a dog barking the whole night smh. This place is TRASH‼️‼️‼️‼️
