After a long and stressful day at the hospital, it was great to fall into a comfy bed. I love that it was walking distance from the hospital.

Convenient Stay for Hospital Visit
I like the friendliness of the staff, the close proximity to Duke Hospital, and the free shuttle service to the hospital. The rooms are nice and clean. The bed is a little hard and the pillows were a little lumpy and small. I also like the quiet hours during the nice. Good service.
