The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was very clean, with comfortable beds and the facilities were very well maintained. The little kitchen area in each suite is absolutely perfect for snacks and light cooking. What a great idea! The hotel is very centrally located. We stayed here for an out-of-town wedding and it was absolutely perfect. Would highly recommend.

This boutique property is located in the historic tobacco district of Durham, NC and is attached to the Durham Performing Arts Center, where we were attending a concert upon their re-opening night. With plenty of restaurants within walking distance and parking adjacent to the hotel, this is the perfect spot to park your car for the day and get your steps in.

We were given a room that was occupied and immediately returned to the front desk. The response should have been, "I'm so sorry, let me take care of that" or "sorry for the inconvenience", but instead, the room was called to verify that it was occupied. It was late at night, we were tired, and the last thing we needed to do was to walk back to the front desk! Do better, please.

Though this may sound like a paid advertisement, this is my new favorite hotel. The staff were so kind and helpful throughout our 2 night stay. The breakfast and afternoon reception were wonderful, and the pool was a great place to relax when we had a few extra minutes. I would highly recommend this hotel, with its clean and spacious updated rooms and excellent customer service. We will never stay anywhere else in the Raleigh-Durham area.
