The good: the location if you are visiting Duke, the cleannesses, the room layout, bed, pillows and bedding The bad: costumer service, receptionist, quality I had $10 food credit, that according to the receptionist could use for restaurant or food shop. The 2 cold coffees I took ended up being $10.75, so I asked her to charge my credit card for the $0.75, but my card was charged the entire $10.75. $10 is not breaking anyone’s bank, but the deception bothered me.

My stay was great. The staff were very professional. The rooms were clean. The only issue I had was I made reservations for a king bed room and got a double queen room. Overall it was a great stay and I would recommend this hotel.

AC Hotel gives an upscale luxurious feel. The lobby is beautifully decorated with modern fixtures and furniture. The bar area is always so neat and inviting. The staff is always pleasant. The rooms are spacious and clean. The only thing missing from this hotel is a pool.
