We chose this location soley because of the Pelotons offered in the fitness center. Unfortunately, all were out of service during our stay. Also, our curtains in our room were not hanging properly when we arrived. I notified the front desk on Sunday, left my phone number, and was told a manager would contact me. We checked out this morning and I have yet to hear from anyone. This was our worst Mariott Bonvoy experience to date. As of this review, on February 12 at 6 pm EST, I still have not heard from anyone from the hotel.

Clean, modern, really nice rooms and bathrooms. Love the staff. And the bar is great - their G&T is fabulous. Super convenient to Duke and the hospital. Lots of quick eating nearby. Parking is a little tight otherwise is a total home run to stay here.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The people that work here are unfriendly and unhelpful.. The man at the front desk did not know how to print a receipt and was not friendly. The cleaning staff wouldn't clean the room. After I finally did get a receipt, I was charged a different amount. I wouldn't stay here again because of the poor customer service and general incompetence.
