people. The hotel is good, reliable, clean, all that. It’s connected to medical facilities so it’s sort of “for” that, and it does have a bit of a clinical feel. It’s not one of those with an exciting check in experience or anything. No vibe of people going out to have fun touristy experiences. I was here for a conference but it was almost a little too sedate even for that. But if you’re visiting loved ones who aren’t well, it’s ideal, you don’t want all that horsing around and laughing and such going on around you anyway. I meant what I said about the staff, they were just the best.

Our stay at University Inn was wonderful! The place was clean, the staff was helpful, the shuttle drivers were accommodating and the housekeeping staff was tip notch! I will definitely make this our go to spot when traveling to Duke Hostpital for care.

The bed had a foam mattress. My husband, with his bad back found it extremely uncomfortable. The pillows were enormous about the size of a kitchen trash can. I wonder who can sleep using them? I slept flat on the bed with no pillow as there was no other option. Lots of light in the room and noise in the halls and I could not figure out how to access the local TV stations. The main positive is a "free" shuttle to the Duke Medical Center. The second night we stayed at La Quinta Inn in Durham. It was about $30 cheaper per night with free parking, breakfast, and a much more comfortable room. Oh BTW Duke has parking garages so no need to stay at University Inn for the "free" shuttle.

I was surprised to have to pay for parking as we did not make the reservation directly and parking was very limited. Also assumed there would be a breakfast as most hotels include those now but there wasn't any. Overall adequate lodging. Location excellent if going to the hospital for treatment.

Would absolutely stay here again! We were a family of five visiting the area to tour colleges. We stayed here for 3 nights in order to spend time on the Duke University and UNC campuses. It was the perfect location for visiting everywhere we needed to be. We did not visit the hospital however it was right across the street which was so convenient for anyone staying for treatments, etc. The room is spacious enough for everyone. We had a suite which was great having the sofa and additional space. The staff was so friendly and very helpful with directions and recommendations. Our only complaint, which is minor, is the size of the bathroom. We were fine however be prepared that the area for the toilet and shower is very tight.

Coffee was good and free. The rest required payment, so I brought my own. I think there should be a free breakfast and parking included in price. It is getting a little expensive.overall good but has gotten more expensive than 1 year ago

Clean and convenient. Very close to Duke.

I liked how close it was to the hospital. The elevator was down when we arrived, but staff got it repaired quickly! Very nice accommodation for one night stay. Thanks again!
