Save, should you want by cooking your meals at home; or splurge, should you desire with night life of Durham a stone throw away.

Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Joseph S. 13 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location Disliked: Listing accuracy Positives. Excellent central location, which was our main consideration. Overall, good, comfortable spacious apartment, with good size bedrooms and very good bath/shower rooms. Clean.Negatives. Some of the equipment was limited or poor. Most importantly, the beds were not king size, as advertised!Also, of the half dozen or so cups, several were chipped or cracked. No small or medium size plates. Hardly any oven trays. Only one pillow per person. Bath towels rather than bath sheets. TV was small and very basic. Overall, flat had a tired and only functional appearance. ##### Joseph S.
