Very misleading. The place looks nothing like the pictures online. The place smelled like marijuana.There was no water pressure. The breakfast was pathetic. The toaster didn't work, and the only cereal was Cinnamon Toast Crunch-yuck! The orange juice was terrible -tasted like Hi-Cooler. The staff were friendly and the beds were comfortable. Thank God we only needed a 2-night stay.

We enjoyed the continental breakfast this morning and then left for lunch. We returned back and enjoyed several hours of television and movies before taking a comfortable nap in the king size bed, before having to go to work at noon for my husband and 4pm for myself. It was a quiet, peaceful day. Thank you!!

Upon arriving at the hotel, my party was immediately concerned we were at the wrong location. The exterior photos from Google taken at night were able to conceal the slapdash black paint job on the outside of the building. Walking into the lobby, we noticed aggressive fragrances that seemed to be trying to conceal the natural scent of the building. Opening the door to the room, the unwelcoming appearance of the room halted our initial desire to settle in. As my party investigated the bathroom and bedding, noting the sad state of the room, I stood back opting to avoid touching the bed or setting my things down. Deciding to look at the wall instead of the room, I quickly noticed exposed cracks in the plaster that seemed like someone had recently attempted to cover them up with wallpaper. We quickly decided that it would be in the best interest of our health to drive 3+ hours home late at night instead of staying at this hotel. I have no clue why a national brand like Best Western would associate with a dilapidated establishment like the SureStay Plus at Durham Medical Center. We are requesting a refund.!!!

Roach Motel

The evening desk attendant tried to leave us outside in the cold and help check in another guest instead of taking us to another (and the last) available room because the one we were in had bugs, living and dead. This new room was only better bc it didn’t have AS MANY bugs. Wouldn’t even consider trying breakfast. Finally, the room we were moved to was at the far end of the hall, one elevator on property, and the outside door was accessible WITHOUT using your keycard.
