Comfort Inn & Suites Durham Near Duke University

the free breakfast is really good. the hotel is very clean. the staff is friendly.

the air conditioner is pretty noisy.

It was easy to find. Great breakfast. Comfortable, clean rooms. Staff was friendly. Great location

Staff attitudes were without exception excellent. Comfortable, reasonable sized, clean room and bathroom. Very close to local restaurants, drugstore and garage - nothing exotic, just adequate. Good free wireless internet.

Only ventilation in rooms was by noisy, and over-vigorous air conditioning; opening windows would have been far preferable because the location was not too noisy. The proffered van service is pretty much illusory - there is a van but it didn't move in a week - and definitely doesn't deliver the advertised service. Having said that, taxi fares to downtown were about $12,so even with a couple of those each day the rate still looked competitive. Breakfast was pretty basic and tended to be running out of stock and options by 8 a.m.

Hotel staff were very friendly and helpful. Amenities were good; breakfast was good.
