Nice hotel

It was a nice quaint hotel. It was comfortable and the rooms were nice. However, I expected better breakfast from a place that touts itself as a B&B. It was just plain bagels and cereal.

Great Stay

The historical house really made it a special stay. The staff both at the hotel and the bar/grill were friendly, and shared great stories of the home. Durham is a fantastic town with great history that the Durham Historical Association, which is just down from the hotel proudly displays. I will definitely return.

The breakfast is not what I would have expected from an Inn. Self serve. Rooms and bathroom are small. Its located next to a cemetery. Staff not super friendly or helpful. Stayed at 3 Inn’s during our 7 day trip around the area. We felt the other two were more in line with our desires.
