If you're looking for windows, my room didn't have any. And what a BLESSING! First time I've stayed in a downtown metro area where I could sleep well because there were no sirens and horn honkings! You're right in downtown, yet tucked away. Once you get inside, you'll be glad you chose it.

Cool little hotel with retro vibe. Hotel has built in parking deck for easy parking and check in. The hotel could not be any more convenient to downtown Durham (restaurants, bars, DPAC, Bulls, etc). Staff is extremely helpful and friendly.

We booked a king room and got a double? Large gap under the room door. Stained wallpaper. Breakfast vouchers didn't amount to much, it took forever to get our food, then it was frozen in the middle. Coffee was good. Cute, eclectic place, convenient to DPAC. Ms. Evette at the desk was great, but another lady was not.

6/10 Okay

Liked: Staff & service, amenities
The location is excellent with nearby restaurants and entertainment. The staff were extremely helpful and courteous. The hotel was remodeled from an older motel and still had aspects needed better rennovation (I.e., mildew in the shower, vinyl baseboard needed repair). Parking was convenient and in/out procedures were explained well. The biggest drawback was the noise-loud street traffic, other guest talking loudly outside until 3 am. The rooms had little soundproofing.

Location to downtown was nice. Parking was terrible. I paid $50 to park in parking garage and was charged an additional $80 plus dollars to get out of the garage. This was after I had already paid for parking. Was told I would receive a QR code to use to get out of the garage and I never received it. Wa told I would only be reimbursed the difference of the $50 I paid
