Long drive to have my room given away.
After confirming my stay with the Residence Inn Durham by checking in online, then email exchange just hours before my arrival stating “I am on my way and would be there in 2hrs”- then the hotel acknowledging that check in… I got to the front desk at 6:10pm to find out I no longer had a room and was being re-booked at a different, lesser quality hotel 10 mins away. (After driving 9hrs to get there).
Utterly ridiculous and I’ll never book a room with them again.

Not that great
We were given a room near RR tracks so we heard a train throughout the night. Also paying for parking is ridiculous.

Residence Inn is a great hotel!
Hotel was very clean, just didn’t have a fresh smell. Loved the shower!! The room was spacious. Sofa bed was not very comfortable. Also loved having free breakfast offered! Front desk reception had excellent customer service! Loved that hotel was close to convention center and restaurants! Don’t like that you have to pay for parking.

The place to stay!!
A very clean and quiet hotel property with great breakfast in the morning. Ample parking and reasonably priced. All of the staff were very friendly. Would definitely recommend.

Went to visit my daughter who is attending Duke. Great place to stay. Rooms were nice and clean. Very comfortable. The bar has signs for hours that were not accurate. A few night I was there I was told staff left “because it was slow”. This was at 7:00 at night. Seemed weird.

Dogs or not, stay here
Good stuff: Spacious room, clean, air conditioning, responsive service from front desk, housekeeping, and maintenance (needed a new kitchen light bulb); nice gym; dog poop bags provided; great location for dog-walking (and overall) and green space for dogs.
Other stuff: Room phone would not connect to anything when we dialed; breakfast was a decent variety of items but the quality was just the bare and basic including the microwaved frozen burritos. The food staff was as basic as the food and slightly rude. The breakfast times are different by only 30 minutes—-not sure if that small time makes much of a difference or just confuses guests.

Plenty of space in the rooms, convenient to have a kitchen too. Staff was very friendly and patient with packages being delivered to many guests during college move-in.

Welcoming service and walking distance to East Campus for first year move in made this a great choice.

I bought travel insurance for the first time ever from Expedia thinking it would cover any schedule changes I had. I let Expedia know well before the last day of my trip that I wanted to cancel my 3rd night and they said it was too late and I was charged anyway. Expedia is blaming the hotel but Expedia was where I paid for the hotel and the insurance so this has nothing to do with the hotel. Really disappointed with Expedia but the hotel was great.

Located in Downtown Durham, just on Main St, and across the street from Duke University's East Campus, this hotel has an unbeatable location. The area is very quiet and relaxing, and offers excellent strolls and some good dining areas. Bars and restaurants are within walking distance and a bus will take you to Duke's West Campus. Facilities are fine, although the rooms have a bit of humidity. Staff is helpful.

The train will wake you at 5:00 AM. Also, 11:00 PM. Front desk person wasn't pleasant at all. Seemed like she didn't care for her job. When your in town for medical reasons you would like to be greeted with a happy smiling face.
