The house is lovely and seems very recently updated, with three good size bedrooms and a well appointed living space (with some sweet vintage Duke decor). It’s very quiet despite being close to the hospital, and extremely convenient if you are visiting Duke - we walked pretty much everywhere barely needed our car. Host was very responsive and helpful - we got some great restaurant recommendations! All in all a great stay - will book again when I’m coming back to Durham.

Cute little house close to Duke med center. Our family of 6 stayed for the week. We liked the location and had a good stay all in all, but beds were a bit hard to our liking and the AC struggled in the heat of day but seemed to catch up/freeze you at night. No shower toiletries were provided so we had to run out to get some.
