Great Stay!
Great location. Just a few steps from the convention center, where the conference I was in town for was hosted. Clean and comfy with retro decor that’s too cute. My room overlooked the lively pool and bar so it was a little noisy, but earplugs were provided, and I didn’t mind. The lobby had a DJ, and if I were a few years younger, I would have had a ball dancing! I will definitely stay at this venue again the next time I’m in downtown Durham.

The room we were given was on the pool deck and literally behind the DJ booth. So we had to hear the music late and people talking outside our door very late. The location was great but I was looking for something a bit quieter.
