I have mixed feelings about this place...On the one hand, the staff is great. I had booked the wrong date and by the time I noticed it, a free cancellation wasn't possible anymore. However, they set the booking on the right date free of charge. I'm grateful for that. Nonetheless, we didn't have a pleasant experience at all. When we... more

Sketchy clientele; no HBO as advertised; wireless internet in room does not work and has not for weeks as I understand it and free access was advertised; smelly non-smoking room; breakfast is terrible; no special mattresses as advertised; personnel are friendly, but that is about it. How this place would win an award I have no idea. Good location. Cheap... more

The room was clean, bathroom clean and front staff nice. Something went wrong with electrical outlets for coffee and orange juice machines for breakfast. Had a little trouble with card scanning to open room door. However during our two night stay everything was good especially for the price. It was very close to Duke Children Hospital and we also dropped... more

This was the worst hotel ever. We got in at 2 am and there were people in the parking lot, talking etc. and let me just say they were up to no good. There was only enough toliet paper to use 2 times, and there was no refil. After wakeing up and giveing my young child a shower I went... more

Dear Mom of 2 Kids, I remember you because it is rare that someone has ever been, in my 20 years of experience, so blisteringly rude to me. I do not accept abusive behavior from anyone, including my guests. No amount of money is worth being spoken too as you spoke to me. I do not understand why a refundable...

This place is a DUMP!!! I can't believe all of these good ratings. Filthy, hair in the sink, old clothes and trash in the exterior corridors, toilet did not flush even after complaining twice, housekeeping banging on the door at 9:00 AM wanting to get in the room, leaking bathtub faucet, no filters for the coffee maker, no coffee cups... more

Dear Joe, I am very sorry you did not like our hotel, however, I must disagree. While our place is not for everyone, it is by no means a dump. We strive to provide comfortable accomodations at an affordable price, and while that may mean that some things must be sacrificed, cleanliness is not one of them. I personally check...

The americas best value inn carolina duke is a good place to stay for the price. I had a deluxe king room for $50.00 including tax. The room was nice and clean with a large tv and 5 screens of hbo and like usual nothing on hbo worth watching. The bed was probably the most comfortable bed I have ever... more

I have travelled everywhere, and this is one of the best values I have found anywhere. The bed was soft (ask for a deluxe room=), the was a free microwave/refrigerator, and there were so many movie channels on the TV. I did not expect anything but coffee and there was a continental breakfast, and there was free shuttle service to... more
