No Parking and a 2:00am Fire Drill
This is not a great hotel if you drive to it. There is no hotel parking nor valet service. You have to go down the block to a parking garage. While the vibe is kind of cool, closer inspection makes you think the rooms were designed by a rookie design student, the stuff just doesn’t fit together. While it was clean, it was not well kept. Our bathroom showed signs of lots of moisture problems and taking a shower resulted in a quart of water on the floor. There was a non-stop beeping throughout the night but we could never find the source. Then there was the 2:00am fire alarm that shut off after 5 minutes once we were on the way down the steps. At the price point, this was a disappointment, I would not go back even though we loved where it was located.

Great spot.
Great experience. Very friendly staff at check in. Loved the room service ( so few have it now) and the freshly ground coffee beans delivered to the room in the morning. Room was very clean. Will stay there again.

The Durham hotel is a quaint small hotel. Everything in Durham is walkable from the hotel. The hotel breakfast was very good and the rooftop bar is a fun place. Many excellent restaurants, bars, and craft cocktail lounges are in the area.

I don’t think I’ve ever stayed at a hotel where the staff was as Friendly as at this place. Joe at the valet parking was one of the nicest people I’ve ever met. Everyone was amazing.
