Disappointing stay- won’t be returning.

The hotel looked much better in the photos online than in person. When I arrived, I had to search for the front desk clerk after waiting around with no one in sight. The area around the property felt unsafe, with some sketchy activity going on nearby. There was only one ice machine located on the first floor next to the washer and dryer, and the floor in that area was constantly wet and dirty because the machine randomly dropped ice. I was staying on the third floor, so this was inconvenient. The hotel clearly had water damage, which was obvious from the condition of the floors and a strong musty smell. Breakfast ended early at 9:30 a.m., and the pool was closed the entire time—even though temperatures were around 96°F all week. One night, the police were even called to the hotel, which was unsettling. The Hilton just across the parking lot looked like a much better option and felt safer overall. Staff at this hotel were unfriendly and often didn’t answer the phone. The beds were unusually high; my elderly grandmother had a very hard time getting in and out of bed. While it was okay for a single night in a pinch, I would not recommend staying here and definitely won’t be coming back.

Hotels.com -specify which country hotel is in!!

I didn’t actually stay at this hotel because I live in the UK and was looking for one in Durham, UK. I didn’t even know there is a Durham in the US! I think Hotels.com should make it clearer or at least put the price in dollars not pounds to avoid confusion! I emailed the hotel as soon as I realised and asked if they could possibly give me a refund even though I had chosen the non-refundable option but heard nothing back. I don’t blame the hotel -it’s my own fault not theirs! I’ve given 3 stars for everything as that seems fair-I have no idea nor will I ever have how good this hotel is!

I had trouble understanding the gentleman who checked me in. He didn’t explain anything about the free breakfast or anything extra. There wasn’t the ability to take a bath, only a shower and the water was barely warm. Rather disappointing. Plus there was standing water in the tub when I checked in.

AWFUL SERVICE AND DIRTY AS SIN

The people that run the front desk were absolutely rude and unhelpful. I had turned my towels into housekeeping during housekeeping hours but they failed to bring me any clean ones back. So that following evening I called down to the front desk and asked if I could please get some towels and I was told that it was marked on his paperwork that we had already received towels for that day and we were not eligible to get any clean towels. I had to go down the street and purchase some towels to take my shower that evening. I also needed quarters to complete my laundry cycle. I had enough quarters to start the wash but did not have enough for the dryer and I was told that he could not give me the quarters that he had in the register because he needed them for other customers. That I would have to walk to a store or figure something else out to complete my laundry. The first morning I had spilled just a little bit of coffee on the floor next to my bed, so I used one of the towels that I have bought the night before to clean up my mess and when I looked at the towel after I was done it was near black! Absolutely disgustingly dirty. There's no way that these floors were cleaned before I entered this room.

The property was nice and had been renovated. Didn’t understand why the fan in the bathroom ran 24-7. More renovations and landscaping is needed for better appeal.
