The hotel was done really nicely. The room was really clean and spacious. There was a nice coffee bar downstairs in the morning. There wasn’t any lotion in the room, but they might’ve had some if I asked.

Great hotel that is within easy walk to downtown Chapel Hill. Extremely nice staff from beginning to end of stay. Unfortunately I had little help in contacting the hotel directly. I ended up using Expedia. DO NOT BUY CANCELLATION INSURANCE.with Expedia. A true rip off. One negative is there is no free parking like other high end hotels close in.

The staff was fantastic - very friendly and helpful. The hotel itself is in a nice area that was walkable to shops and restaurants as well as a slightly longer but very manageable walk to the UNC Chapel Hill campus. Hotel was very comfortable and clean.
