About this property

523 C - Historic Downtown Apartment above Brewery BBQ Restaurant - 2 Bedroom

This is the old Varina Hotel. The room has 2 bedrooms, full kitchen, stainless steel appliances, and wood floors. The apartment is above Aviator SmokeHouse BBQ Restaurant. Nearby is the Aviator TapHouse for live music and brewery fresh beer! Across the street is Aviator Pizzeria and BeerShop with a large outdoor patio and plenty of Aviator Beer and also other selections: seltzer, wine, liquor.

Aviator Brewing Company is a brewery located in Fuquay Varina. We brew beer and distribute across the SouthEast. We own 3 restaurants in Fuquay Varina. Come see us and drink some beer!

This room is located above a restaurant. Near the back windows are the hood system. There is noise coming from these electric motors. At night this downtown location has noise. If you need it very quiet this is not the place for you. Please no cats.

cheers!

Love staying here. Location is great. This was our second time staying here. Was not as clean as the first time but nothing that could not be over looked. Spiderwebs, bugs in bathroom. Coffee was supplied which was nice but no filters. Fans would be nice to have handy as it got hot at night while sleeping. Would stay again for sure though.

Water was constantly dripping from the ceiling onto the couch and the couch was always soaking wet. When the sink was turned on the water sprayed out the hose and hit the wall and myself. The water was only lukewarm to take a shower. The overall experience was very disappointing

The location was fantastic! Quaint downtown that was easy to walk and check out the restaurants and shops. Loved the character of the the building the apartment is located in and the apartment itself. Also loved that the host leaves some delicious craft beer in the fridge for the guest.

Easy access in a great location.

If you're going to Raleigh for a show, or concert and want to spend the night somewhere, I highly recommend this property, and having a brewpub and smoke house downstairs is quite nice.

Another awesome visit

This apartment is centrally located to everything we need when we’re in town visiting family. It is spacious, super clean, and communication with the owner is always great. All basic dishes and pots/pans are provided which is nice, the in unit washer and dryer is a perk too. Highly recommend lunch or dinner at the smokehouse, you can’t go wrong staying here!

It was a great place to stay, right in the middle of the historic part of town with restaurants, shops, live entertainment all within walking distance. The apartment was very clean, well stocked with everything you could need. And, Mark responded very quickly to all of our requests. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

Great spot

I was staying for a few days while checking out a nearby flight school and the apartment was perfect! Super easy check-in/out, the aviation theme was neat, and the facility itself was great. Everyone was super friendly and the Aviator restaurants/breweries were tasty. I'm glad I stayed at this place and would definitely recommend it to others.

Great Location if you like to walk to bars/restaurants

We first chose this location because it was close to where family lived. But we Loved that after spending time with family we could come back to our room and just walk across the street or next door to get a drink and some late night bites. There was always music and it was a great way to wind down.

This was a super cool little apartment above a local restaurant. Live music right across the street Friday and Saturday nights but everything is quiet by 11pm or so. The place was clean and ready when we got there and check in was easy and completely painless. I will definitely try to stay here next time too!

Dirty, Spider webs around windows and throughout rental. Tub was dirty past guest soap was still in the tub. Looked like it had not been cleaned in a long time. Freezer was very dirty and ice left in there for months. Bought our own cups we were afraid to use anything in kitchen after seeing how dirty everything looked. The did leave coffee but no coffee filters. The couch was disgusting (all stained up) on its last leg. It was a good thing we did not have someone staying with us to sleep on the couch because there was no bedding left for it. Bathroom rug should be throw out. The bathroom floor/ tub area and under the sink had mildew growing. We loved the charm of the ceilings and the interior doors. If they are truly professional cleaners doing the cleaning they should be fired asap. It is really a shame this place could be so cute with just around 1,000 of improvements. (STR is the industry I work in.) The location was good, but their campion restaurants were way below average. The breakfast place they were out right rude and walked away mid sentence of us asking about the area.
