Hotel is between 2 roads, one is noisy highway. You need a room on the other side. Walls are thin but neighbours were quiet.

a short stay in Durham

It was a short stay, but would book again in the future when we visit Durham again. The food at the Thai restaurant is very delicious, and you are recommended to visit.
