Reviews and Ratings
Staying at this hotel was like stepping into a Tuscan villa in the heart of Chapel Hill with beautiful fountains, marble touches, and modern rooms. The rooms were spacious and extremely clean and comfortable, but needing to go to the gas station next door for an ATM and the somewhat tired decor were minor drawbacks. The small restaurant's insistence on making reservations for breakfast was a minor hassle, though they eventually accommodated my request.
Staying at this hotel felt like being in a Tuscan villa in the heart of Chapel Hill. The rooms were very clean and spacious, with beautiful Juliet balconies. The staff was extremely friendly and accommodating, making my stay even more enjoyable. The location was perfect, close to UNC and great dining options. The dining experience was excellent, and the facilities were top-notch.
My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The rooms were well-appointed, spacious, and spotlessly clean. The staff goes out of their way to ensure a great experience with excellent client-focused service. The hotel's location is convenient, near the main hub but away from the noise. The dining experience was delicious, especially the blueberry pancakes with bacon. I enjoyed the pool area and found it well-maintained and enjoyable.
Wow, what a stay! The hotel rooms are super spacious, larger than your average hotel room, but unfortunately, my suite was right on the front, so I could hear every car leaving in the morning and people chatting loudly at night. The service was top-notch, with the staff making their own bread, pasta, and gelato - incredible! The location is pretty excellent, although a bit oddly inside a 'cutout,' but it's just a short ride away from fantastic food options. The dining experience was a delight, especially the delicious grits and blueberry pancakes – a lovely start to my mornings.
The hotel has spacious rooms with great beds, HUGE shower, a Romeo and Juliet balcony, coffee maker, mini fridge, clean, comfortable, roomy, and luxurious ambiance. The service is super friendly and efficient, making for a pleasant stay. The location offers easy access to UNC, restaurants, and downtown, although it may feel a bit oddly situated in a 'cutout' area. The dining experience is nice and includes delicious options like blueberry pancakes with bacon. Overall, a great choice for those looking for a clean and comfortable stay with friendly staff.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms, while initially showing a stained bed runner and needing an ATM trip to the nearby gas station, ended with a pleasant surprise of being bumped to a suite. The decor was a bit tired, and the small restaurant initially gave me a hard time about breakfast reservations but eventually accommodated. However, the suites turned out to be huge and comfy with spacious baths and all the necessary amenities, offering a relaxing retreat.
