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.

We were given a room near RR tracks so we heard a train throughout the night. Also paying for parking is ridiculous.

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.
2.5
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.

Great location. Walking distance to the event I attended which I loved but there were ants in my room.

Loved how clean and big the room was.

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.

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.
3.0
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.
2.5
Pleasant stay. I don’t love paying for parking, I think that should be an amenity that’s included
4.0
Great downtown area but a little unsafe after dark around this hotel.
1.5
I was on the business trip for 4 nights and 5 days. While the room and facility is clean, it lacks good room service, they don't even make up the bed and give us extra liner of trash bags. The quality of breakfast is the worst, boring, lacking variety, compared to other Residence Inn that I have stayed.

Nice to have shuttle service to hospital and Duke campus (they serve a 3 mile radius). Easy walk to restaurants. Good breakfast and coffee service. Clean, well equipped studio accommodations.

Location is great, the building's in very good condition, but covid's over, and it's time to go back to servicing the rooms daily. Also, the breakfast was standard fare, and yet.... not as good as other places.
5.0
I liked the easy access to shops and food, as well as downtown and the interstate. Rooms were clean, breakfast was good (and free) and the staff were all exceptionally kind and helpful.

4.0
Hotel was nice and clean. The staff was friendly and helpful. I did not catch his name, but the gentleman who drives the hotel shuttle was so friendly and courteous and kind. The breakfast was good, a lot of options and food was fresh and hot. The only con I could think of is that there was a lot of street noise. I woke up multiple times throughout the night from cars zooming down the street.
2.0
The room itself is exceptional and perfect
for a business stay or writing retreat, especially as the kitchen allows you to cook and stay focused on work without having to leave the room. Location is also great if you do want to explore restaurants and Duke. Only complaint is that their breakfast is mediocre at best.

A very nice hotel in the heart of Durham. Close proximity to restaurants, bars and DPAC.

5.0
Overall I would definitely use this facility again. However, my check-in staff was nice but not very informative. She didn't tell me about the parking, breakfast time, check out, the deposit, nothing. I had to ask the questions for my reassurance. Although, it wasn't the best check-in experience, I would still recommend and stay.
1.5
Good location and clean property. However, although requested to clean the room every other day, as they suggest, we have the room "refreshed" only one time in a 7-day stay
2.5
Very nice stay. Good food. Nice room. The only thing is i wished there was a pool. Our stay was during a heat wave in July and a pool would have been nice.
