Staff was very friendly, rooms were clean and well appointed. We didn't have any problems with noise, linens were very comfortable, slept well.

Rooms are pretty small. If someone is at the desk, you can't walk by. Also can't access the closet and drawers at the same time. Minor inconveniences, they squeezed a lot of amenities into a small space. Plan on heading to the lobby (lots of lounge seating and tables) if you need to do anything besides sleeping in the room. Water was not very hot in the morning (probably when most people were taking showers), but was okay at other times. Water pressure was terrible.

Great location for visits to Duke hospital. Free shuttle was most welcome to get where I needed to go. Location was convenient to restaurants and shopping.

Room was not as clean as I like on arrival. After a word with the desk staff the room was cleaned and all was well.

The room was clean. There were plenty of towels and washcloths that supplied us for our entire stay. (Housekeeping was on request). Staff was especially courteous and friendly. Room was a standard size. Also there was free parking onsite and didn't have issues finding parking. We did not stay here due to a medical reason, but the hospital is right across the street if that suits your needs. It's also a short walk to the Duke Campus

The room was a bit dark. There wasn't much lighting. This wasn't a problem us but for some they may need a brighter room at night.

The Lodge was in a great location for our trip. It's only a few minutes away from the DPAC which was the focus of our trip. If your intended destination is Duke University Hospital, it is in direct diagonal eyesight of The Lodge. The staff we met were incredibly nice, helpful, and pleasant at check-in and check-out. The room was ready when we arrived and very clean. The room rate was also very affordable. I can highly recommend The Lodge and look forward to staying there again!

There wasn't anything to dislike about The Lodge.

It was clean and bedding very comfortable

1. The elevator was broken throughout my entire stay (9 days) and in the morning the waiting time was long. 2. Once the A/C turns on, the room is very cold 3. The staff should be in a position to recommend and suggest nice places for meals in the vicinity.

HAD TROUBLE WITH FIRE ALARM BEEPING. THEY HAD IT FIX WITHEN AN HOUR.

A/C UNIT HAD A SMALL RATTLE WHILE IT WAS RUNNING. BUT NOT BAD ENOUGH TO COMPLAIN ABOUT.

The hotel has been updated and has nice finishes throughout. The staff were super friendly.

They did not have complimentary breakfast, or if they did it was very minimal. The area where the hotel is located is questionable. They lock the lobby doors at 8 - we assumed for safety. But it was a quick stop for us on a road trip, so we did not explore the surrounding area.
