The room and halls smelled very clean and I had a good experience at reception. The hard floors are pretty loud, and I could hear every word spoken in the room joined to mine. Surprised they charge for parking given the cost to stay per night, but they do list that on the site. Overall, it was fine.

This was a fine place for us to stay within 2 blocks of Duke University Hospital. The staff were extremely nice and worked with us on our nightly stay as we didn't know how long we would be there. Free coffee downstairs and the room was huge! I have no complaints about the University Inn Durham.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Very clean, seems to have been renovated/updated very recently. Rooms were spacious. It was a convenient in-between location for meetings in Raleigh and Chapel Hill. While the staff wasn’t very friendly initially, the woman who checked me in was kind and graciously moved me when my neighbors continued to blast their TV, which brings me to my biggest concern: the whole place has LVP for the floors, which makes for a very clean and nice look but doesn’t do much for sound. Overall, I feel mixed- I would consider staying again, though.
