Loft 5 min from Duke

ChelsiRating, 5 stars2 months ago
My daughter and I stayed here while in town touring Duke. We felt safe in the area and had no problems accessing the property. We arrived in the middle of the night and felt comfortable getting in despite it being after dark. I have experienced otherwise in other places and always value safety. The host gave clear check in/out instructions, and was helpful navigating us to a local Fedex store after leaving our itinerary at the airport. I would totally stay here again.

The Durham III • Vibe 8726

JonRating, 5 stars5 months ago
This was a great place for the price. Located so close to many restaurants and shopping as well as equidistant to UNC and Duke. A few times I could hear the upstairs neighbor walking around but it was not loud and never lasted more than a minute. Overall, a quiet, peaceful stay. Very comfortable bed, too.

AnaRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Jamie was a great host. All instructions were clear and accessing the place was a breeze. We were coming in from a conference and had 3 days before the next one. It was such a treat to find water and snacks. Jamie saved us a trip to buy toiletries and we really appreciated that after a long weekend away from home. Checking out was easy and not the usual pain we go through in other places. Ditto what other positive reviewers said. We had zero problems with our stay. Five Stars All Around!

Walkable Downtown Durham Near Duke

LindaRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Ana Maria's place was perfect for us! We were there for the weekend and ate out, but Ana Maria's kitchen is well stocked for cooking in. The king bed is very comfortable, the bathroom is updated, and the living area is perfect for relaxing. We loved the wooden venetian blinds throughout the unit. We highly recommend Ana Maria's place to the AIrbnb community.

EllenRating, 5 stars22 months ago
Relocating to Durham with a young family, Anne's unit was the perfect 🥰 place to transition from the Northeast. What a true blessing, Anne provided toys for my young children, opened up soccer ⚽️ time when the field was available, and the bonus was a three minute walk to the local park! I couldn't think of a better family to connect with than Anne's family. We love the thoughtfulness of the unit, plug in USB outlet tables, working desk area for professional, large closet, and the awesome espresso machine 👍. Thank you for opening your unit to the community.
A serene bedroom is featured with a spacious bed dressed in soft blue linens. Two rolled towels are neatly placed at the foot of the bed. Natural light pours in through large windows, illuminating the cozy space. A door leads to a bright hallway.

Upscale King 1BR Suite—Mins to Downtown Raleigh!

IsabellaRating, 5 stars4 weeks ago
I enjoyed staying here in Raleigh. The August door app wasn't working at first to unlock the door, but when I called the number for the host, they were able to let me in with a lock box physical key. The space was large, and the host communicated often to check-in and provide local recommendations. There were some issues with the Wi-Fi (it didn't work when we tried to connect with our phones and it didn't work on the smart TV). I think if I had reached out to the host they would have been able to fix it, but it wasn't working when I tried a few different times. I wasn't there long enough to reach out about it, but it may be something to check in the future to ensure it is working and the tv is hooked up to it.
