We stayed at this property after a Duke basketball game. It was easy access via Uber to the game and back again afterwards. The room was nice and comfortable. The hotel was also quiet!

Unbelievable!
Arrived at the hotel and the two rooms available had broken key access (dead batteries) and the clerk could fix them. Was sent away without a room that was prepaid for at 2 am! Horrible!
