This one has seen better days. Everything was run down and the cleanliness had much to be desired. We found a huge roach in the bathroom. YUK!! It was a noisy place because of it's location right off a major highway AND on the corner of two busy streets with loud trucks and sirens at all hours which could be heard even with the windows closed.
In it's favor the breakfasts were excellent especially if you have a sweet tooth. We usually love B & B's and always try to find them as an alternative to the Hotels.

We've travelled for years staying in B&Bs and Morehead Manor is outstanding. First location is perfect, on a gracious tree-lined street yet in the heart of town with many restaurants and attractions within easy walking distance. Second, house has been magnificantly restored with large rooms, high ceilings, beautiful/elegant yet inviting furnishings, etc. Beds are very comfortable and there are many windows, which DO open. Third, this B&B has the most common area space per bedroom of any place we have ever stayed plus some lovely outdoors areas. And let's not forget the food....delicious (and ample) breakfasts and homemade desserts, tea, coffee, sodas and water always available. And last, but not least, the very gracious, interesting and just plain fun owners, Monica and Daniel. Morehead Manor is a true gem.

I am a huge fan of the Manor! Every aspect of this wonderful historic house radiates comfort and serenity. Mr. and Mrs. Edwards, the best innkeepers in the land, are exceptionally kind and welcoming. The house is an architectural gem and the location is unbeatable. The breakfasts are delicious and served with graciousness and a smile. What a fine discovery!

The Morehead Manor is an OK B&B close to downtown Durham. The owners, Monica and Daniel, are good people. But there is little privacy--the floors and everything else squeaks and moans. The windows don't open. The only air is from a window unit. And the bathrooms are just like grandma's. Also, the hosts could be more generous with the breakfast--just like grandma. This is not the place to go to get away from it all.
