Great for a short trip

The hotel is a bit worn down. The people are friendly and helpful. The rooms are clean and comfortable. I like the full kitchen and coffee pot in the room. Good water pressure. Small TV , no HBO A/C was load but worked well. It’s close to restaurants, grocery store and Starbucks. I would stay there again.

Lacks cleaning/ dilapidated furniture

Not a good experience. The staff was great but the facility was bad. Furniture was old, dirty, worn out and damaged. 1 room the toliet did not flush, bad smell, small insects, and microwave hood was broken off. Room 2. Broken oull out, filthy chairs and sofa bed broken . Room 3 ( 1:10 am when we arrive back from the ceremony) no electricity except the bathroom and bedroom. Window was opened, small insects in kitchen area, dry blood or mud (looks like) at bathroom entrance. Bedroom was fine but the rooms need some major TLC. Bathroom grab bar broken. Unsafe for my disabled mom. Smh

Great stay for the unc/duke game

I was worried because of other reviews but my husband and I have nothing bad to say about our stay! We felt safe for the most part and the lady at the front desk was so nice- I really wish I would have asked her name so she could get recognition!! The hotel is definitely older but you get what you pay for. We were very grateful for the price point and the rooms/lobby matched that (nothing bad just outdated)
