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!

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.

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

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.

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.

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!

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!

Simple, basic, convenient, very reasonably priced is how we would describe this property. Parking got a little tricky on the weekend if we wanted to return around dinner time, but we would definitely stay at this property again. It was just what we needed for our short visit with our daughter in Fuquay-Varina.
