    The atmosphere was just great, and it was really clean. I would go back.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Hotel is a bit outdated, despite efforts to modernize. Shower door was very difficult to operate. It would be nice if cafe was fully operational for more hours.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    The TV and telephone didn’t work and there was no one available to fix them. Bed was very comfortable. Some mold in the shower area. Doubt that I will stay here again. We left a day early.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    after checking in the room, we had issues with the toilet being backed up and also the breakfast Café wasn’t open with the schedule they gave us

    Nice stay

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Can’t beat the location for Duke University Hospital and the VA. Nice lobby. The beds are very hard, the pillows need upgrading. One elevator was broke so long waits for that. We did stay once before and the elevators were fine. I would not want to stay long term.

    Superb

  • Engine customer May 2026

    This property was clean, staff was great, parking was great and safe. But, the bed was a platform bed and the matress was hard and very uncomfortable. My husband and I both got about 2 hrs of sleep the whole night. We love to convince to the VA medical center, however the bed might have us looking fo another alternative our next visit.

    Exceptional

  • Engine customer May 2026

    Beds and bedding needs updated. Extremely hard, lumpy mattresses. Something was going on with the septic. Bathroom sink water smelled extremely bad, like an overflowed septic tank. Would not, could not use the sink water due to the extreme odor of poop.
