Our stay was great. My only complaint was we brought about $60 worth of food to save money and put it in the refrigerator. Our food was room temperature in the morning so we had to throw it all away. The bathrooms were so small in the rooms that you could barely fit in them. If you were overweight or handicap they wouldnt work for you. They did have a recliner which was a big plus for me since i have back problems! Very cloae to the hospital so thats a plus as well.

We stayed at this hotel due to its proximity to Duke University Hospital. Even on the 4th floor, traffic was loud. Thank goodness for earplugs!

Passing thru Durham.
Convenient location but a bit noisy from close vehicle traffic. Also, the heating system wasn’t to easy to adjust so the room stayed on the warm side.

Convenient, inexpensive, clean / renovated, helpful staff-- but one of the most uncomfortable combinations of lumpy pillows and old/angled mattresses I have experienced in a long time. Slept terribly as a result. Previously included breakfast before Covid-19, nothing included any longer.

Nice Visit At University Inn, Durham/Duke Hosp
The room had everything I needed, and was clean and comfortable. I couldn't get the blinds to close but drawing the drapes closed made the room as dark as I wanted.
