Went to visit my daughter who is attending Duke. Great place to stay. Rooms were nice and clean. Very comfortable. The bar has signs for hours that were not accurate. A few night I was there I was told staff left “because it was slow”. This was at 7:00 at night. Seemed weird.

Dogs or not, stay here
Good stuff: Spacious room, clean, air conditioning, responsive service from front desk, housekeeping, and maintenance (needed a new kitchen light bulb); nice gym; dog poop bags provided; great location for dog-walking (and overall) and green space for dogs. Other stuff: Room phone would not connect to anything when we dialed; breakfast was a decent variety of items but the quality was just the bare and basic including the microwaved frozen burritos. The food staff was as basic as the food and slightly rude. The breakfast times are different by only 30 minutes—-not sure if that small time makes much of a difference or just confuses guests.

I bought travel insurance for the first time ever from Expedia thinking it would cover any schedule changes I had. I let Expedia know well before the last day of my trip that I wanted to cancel my 3rd night and they said it was too late and I was charged anyway. Expedia is blaming the hotel but Expedia was where I paid for the hotel and the insurance so this has nothing to do with the hotel. Really disappointed with Expedia but the hotel was great.

Located in Downtown Durham, just on Main St, and across the street from Duke University's East Campus, this hotel has an unbeatable location. The area is very quiet and relaxing, and offers excellent strolls and some good dining areas. Bars and restaurants are within walking distance and a bus will take you to Duke's West Campus. Facilities are fine, although the rooms have a bit of humidity. Staff is helpful.

The train will wake you at 5:00 AM. Also, 11:00 PM. Front desk person wasn't pleasant at all. Seemed like she didn't care for her job. When your in town for medical reasons you would like to be greeted with a happy smiling face.

lack of service and breakfast is substandard
I was on the business trip for 4 nights and 5 days. While the room and facility is clean, it lacks good room service, they don't even make up the bed and give us extra liner of trash bags. The quality of breakfast is the worst, boring, lacking variety, compared to other Residence Inn that I have stayed.
