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.

Overall this was a good place to stay for an extended trip. The staff was very helpful and the rooms were very clean. As a pet friendly place, this was a plus. Our only complaint was the included breakfast buffet which was uniformly terrible each day. But, with a kitchen in the suite it did not really matter.

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.

This hotel was clean and well kept. The breakfast was very good. What I did not like is that I requested twice for my room to be clean while I was away on business and it did not happen. Poor customer service with regard to this issue but otherwise the sparse interaction I had with management was fine. I never did receive a follow up call as promised. Also beware if the train that rolls through the town of Durham in the middle of the night. it will awaken you with the blaring horn. Also, there is a $15 per night charge for parking.

My son and I stayed here for his freshman move-in weekend, so it was my first time here but I’ll definitely be in Durham again within the next four years and will happily stay here again. The staff was friendly, helpful and competent, the facility and rooms were very clean. They have coffee and water available 24/7 in the lobby. The breakfast was substantial and varied for those with different preferences. It’s very convenient to Duke — esp. East campus — and you can walk to restaurants nearby or drive just a few minutes to even more. Great option for Duke parents and visitors.

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.
