Will go back, but hope they’ll make upgrades.
Hotel needs some upgrades-looking old. Nice staff. Called and asked for extra towels might after checkin. Never got them. Had to go out to my car for a forgotten medicine at 1:30 a.m. No one was at the desk. No need for key to get back into lobby or on the elevator. Scary security.

They told us that they only give you 2 water bottles during your stay - no matter how long you stay. But, they’ll sell you water for $5 per bottle. Ridiculous.

Convenient to UNC Medical Center and places to eat. The elevators were not working when we arrived. We had to wait in the lobby for around 20-30 minutes before we could get to our room. I was with my 92 year old mother, so it was slightly frustrating, although we understood. There were not a lot of options for snacks and they were very expensive. We had been at the hospital all day and decided to get some snacks in the lobby because we were too tired to go to a restaurant. Some of the bananas were rotten. Most hotels that I have stayed at have have a nicer selection of snacks, so we were disappointed with that.
