Very clean and all efficient place to stay at. All I can suggest is to go more vegan and allow the customer service reps to pick the music played just to make it more fun for them. Everything else is pretty solid.

I was offered the chance to waive housekeeping during my stay when I checked in online - which I did. But housekeeping cleaned my room every single day anyway. Comfortable, clean, convenient to Duke campus and Hospital. Sleep disrupted by footfalls of person in room above me. Wished for better insulation between floors!

I loved your hotel, it's location, it's ambiance there were a few minor adjustments I would like to see. One is a magnifying mirror in the bathroom. The other is I ordered a Caesar salad to go from the bar and it was served in a cardboard box with the dressing leaking through the bottom. A plastic container would have served much better. Other than that perfect stay with comfortable beds and great bathrooms!!!

Great stay!! Put us in the middle of everything. Room was comfortable and cozy!! Only improvement I noticed was the wallpaper could have been applied better. Not a deal breaker but, could be a quirk for some.

thed room was clean, good size, well made, comfortable and had everything. But the re was no shower gel for both days and the shower door did not stay closed while taking a shower. it slid back open. also the shower it self was difficult to shut off because of a new valve they placed, whcih was very sensitive. the breakfast was reasonable, but there was only one gluten free option, "Oats" for a vegetarian
