The rooms were ok. Nothing great. The outside of the rooms really looks run down. The staff was not very helpful. They gave us a list of restaurants in the area on the day we left. There is no breakfast at all. One coffee pot. So no decafee coffee. No juice. No nothing. Holiday in. Is a better hotel. I would stay at any hotel besides this one.

Our stay was phenomenal. We only stayed for one night on a road trip with our 8 month old golden retriever. They were super dog friendly and went out of their way to send dog friendly restaurant recommendations and gave her a bag of branded treats. I thought I was going to not like the internal no window room but I didn’t even notice that it wasn’t there! Will definitely stay again on another trip to Durham.

The staff was super friendly, but we were not happy with our room. It was very damp throughout our stay and our shower was not cleaned at all. There were numerous long dark brown hairs on the wall. It also seemed weird that there was only one desk chair and no other seating in the room. Lastly, though not that important, the bar does not have a cocktail menu.

We really enjoyed the vibe of this hotel. The retro yet modern look was great, and we had no idea that The Patio would be such a party! We lucked into “Salsa Sunday,” and it was really fun. Also, the location is amazing, and downtown Durham is an awesome place to explore.
