Durham Cozy Stay

Great stay!! Put us in the middle of everything. Room was comfortable and cozy!! Only improvement I noticed was the wallpaper could have been applied better. Not a deal breaker but, could be a quirk for some.

Although the parking garage attached to the property didn't have many spots they do have options right beside the property to ensure you don't have to walk far. We had an amazing time here and the staff were wonderful too. I will definitely be staying here again soon!

thed room was clean, good size, well made, comfortable and had everything. But the re was no shower gel for both days and the shower door did not stay closed while taking a shower. it slid back open. also the shower it self was difficult to shut off because of a new valve they placed, whcih was very sensitive. the breakfast was reasonable, but there was only one gluten free option, "Oats" for a vegetarian

Convenient and spacious

Front desk staff okay, but not pleasant. Room is large and comfortable. Only thing was disturbing was how dusty the lobby bench was. One side not (where someone had sat) and the other side very plainly noticeable. During our three night stay no one cleaned the surface. Still a go to spot when in Durham.
