The lights in the kitchen were amazingly bright and beautiful. But, there were no spoons. Lol. I am familiar with the Raleigh - Durham area so that helped in knowing that these homes we in an okay neighborhood and close to the airport.A few things you should know, you park in the back and go up 5 stairs to the porch then all the bedrooms are upstairs. 16 steps.

As a frequent business traveler, I sometimes want the feel of home away from home, and the Modern Durham Retreat for the bill. The host was very kind, gracious, and quick to respond. The kitchen had all the necessities of home for cooking. The beds were comfortable, and the quick responses of the host was a reminder of what customer loyalty is all about. Great property!
