Properties close to Duke University and at a substantially lower price than the hotel at Duke. Rooms are in very good shape. Lobby could use a bit of a refresh, but you’re only there during check-in. While I didn’t use the pool, my room was above the pool and that also looks to be an excellent shape and very large and clean. Definitely a good value

We left after one night and fortunately I got a refund for a nonrefundable 2nd night. The walls are paper thin- we could hear the next door people talking as if they were in our room at midnight. We called 3x to the front desk to ask them to be quiet. Then, at 1230am, a van full of people pulled into the parking lot and were making a ton of noise that you could hear in our room. The van wasn't there the next morning so no idea who they were. This hotel is a 1star. I will never stay in a Comfort Suites again. My first time staying in one in TX was similar.

Just ok

This hotel was ok. The person who checked us in was really nice, and check-in was quick. The hotel seemed very moist - the humidity didn't go away even after we turned on the A/C. The pool was ok - it needs some work, like most of the common areas of the hotel. The bathroom looked clean and upgraded, but a lot of the other areas in the hotel were a bit run down. Breakfast was ok.

The hotel was conveniently located right off the highway and was only about 20-25 mins from the airport. Check in was quick and simple.

The first thing my wife and I saw when we got there was blood on the elevator floor. We laughed it off, mentioned it to someone, and moved on. Our room seemed fine at first, minus a few oversights with cleanliness (grease stains from someone else's head on the headboard being one example.) Again, whatever, I cleaned it up myself. We try to sleep that evening and discover that the actual blackout curtain isn't even designed to cover the window, and the flood lights from the pool are shining into the room all night. There are two flimsy white curtains that don't do much. ..Now I'm getting irritated. Into the night, we wake up with water covering our skin. The A/C, upon inspection, has water in it and is blowing so much humidity into the room that ALL our clothes are now damp, the floor is damp, and I had to turn it off. It's 3am and I don't have the energy to deal with it and I have a doctor's appointment in the morning. Came back that evening and took a shower to discover a raw sewage smell coming from the shower drain. We ended up leaving a day early because we couldn't tolerate it. I contacted the property manager through Expedia and asked for a refund for the night we didn't stay due to intolerable conditions, and was refused that simple, reasonable request. In summary: wouldn't recommend staying here if you like sleeping and not getting sick.

Average stay…staff were super friendly.

Stayed overnight as I had a meeting early the next morning. Room was spacious. Did smell a bit. Bed was comfortable. Only complaint was I could see through a gap in my door out in the hallway.
