Guest Ratings & Reviews
The hotel offers excellent views of the center square from well-appointed rooms, although cleanliness could be improved. I appreciated their assistance in finding local restaurants. The accommodating and friendly service stood out despite some initial confusion with payment methods.
My stay at the hotel was an absolute delight! The rooms were out of this world, truly nice and had everything we needed. They were very comfortable and clean. The service I received was just lovely, with outstandingly friendly and professional staff. The location was exactly what we were looking for, close to the theater and with quick easy access to Duke Campus. The dining experience was good overall, but there were some cleanliness issues. The facilities were top-notch.
The hotel is perfectly located in downtown Durham, making it convenient to reach great restaurants nearby and attractions like the Carolina Theater. The parlor rooms are tastefully updated and spotlessly clean, offering a comfortable stay. The service, while friendly and welcoming, could use improvement in terms of mask-wearing consistency. Overall, the hotel provides a clean and comfortable stay with a great location but has room for enhancement in service and dining cleanliness.
