Rooms were clean and bed was comfortable but walls were extremely thin where you can hear the conversations next door and people outside our window (and we were on the 4th floor). Shower did not provide enough hot water for all of us. Enough with the bar soap, just get liquid soap in the bathroom to wash our hands properly.

This hotel is very well located for those who need to be near Duke University Hospital. The room was very comfortable and clean. There are several restaurants nearby. Breakfast is not included, but it's available for a reasonable price. I definitely recommend it. The staff was very friendly.

I stay at the AC Hotel often for medical follow ups at Duke. It’s clean, comfortable, easy walking or driving distance to the hospital with restaurants all around. The staff is courteous and helpful and there’s a full breakfast buffet and coffee downstairs in the morning. They also allow pets. I’ve tried a few other hotels in the area over the past few years and now just stay at the AC every time.
