We were very impressed by the appearance, cleanliness, and service at this hotel. We had a mini suite with king size bed, and the room was cozy and comfortable. I couldn’t ask for nice staff who were pleasant and helpful. We will stay there again.

6/10 Good

Disappointed I had to pay extra for parking for booking through an app. Also $50 per fee in a room without carpet seems very high. I like the lack of carpet for cleanliness but floor was a little sticky and it was very loud. The laundry, people yelling down hall in middle of night. Comfortable bed and good water pressure but probably won’t stay again.

We go to Durham to visit our daughter at school there, and we just sleep and shower there. This hotel is clean, comfortable and conveniently located. Staff is nice. Covered parking for $0-$5/night depending on which platform you reserve with.

My husband and I had a very pleasant stay in University Inn Durham. The bed was comfortable, the chair and leg rest were a nice touch. Everything was clean and the air conditioner was whisper quiet throughout the night.

It is not a luxury property, but you’re not paying luxury prices. Good value for the money. Its location is ideal for anyone who is doing business with the hospital.

The Inn is quiet, which I appreciated. The room I stayed in was very clean, but there were signs of water damage around the bathroom ceiling, and there is visible mold growing in the bathroom on the ceiling about the shower. Overall, staff is welcoming, kind, and accommodating.

Very convenient to hospital. Staff friendly and helpful. Room well kept spacious and clean. Older building so walls a bit thin and hallways lack carpeting so it can be a bit noisy at times. Overall for the price it is a well placed place to stay.
