Booking was easy and communication was quick and clear. The property has been renovated nicely. It is convenient to Duke and the downtown area. Quick access to a highway to get you to other parts of town as needed.

Neighborhood seemed very low income, with a crowd of neighbors outside at night partying loudly with small children. We found roaches in the kitchen and the bedroom. The management brought us roach traps 2 days after we complained about it. The price was great, now we know why.

Great little place close to Duke

This a cute little duplex that was perfect for my stay near Duke university hospital. I was there for several weeks and had great communication with the host/owner. There were a few issues that got resolved immediately and even had a few extensions that were handled with ease. The neighborhood is a mix of incomes, generations, and ethnic backgrounds but i always felt safe and absolutley no trouble of any kind. It even has a small back yard if you want the space. One bedroom and no pull out sofa but plenty of room and spacious living area and huge walk in closet. I felt the bedroom could have used a tv or a dresser but for the price this was an awesome pick.

Welcome to the Lakewood Section of Durham

We stayed in the left hand side of the cottage. The bed, linen and the pillows were 4 star quality. Clean towels were available for the shower, with nice hot water, and plenty of it! The kitchen is modern, the toaster is the pop-up type, so use the microwave or oven for croissants, pizza, etc. There is a large closet behind the bedroom with shelving, rods and hangers. Use the washer/dryer, the host provided us laundry pods (we used only the dryer for our bath towels). A porch catches the morning sun, with the temp barely above 40 we toughed it out for our coffee. We met many of the neighbors as we walked our Yorkie, Jackson. There's a Red Lion supermarket within walking distance (it's a truck, but doable). Off street parking is provided. Driving to downtown is no problem. A well lit mini-mart is at the foot of the block, but its mainly for snacks. Our hosts were quick to answer any queries. No problems.
