The Graduate Hotel in Chapel Hill is an excellent location to visit the campus of UNC. There are tons of restaurants, shope, and so close to campus. You feel you are right in the middle of things. The room was clean and comfortable. The coffee and breakfast foods were perfect and reasonably priced.
