AC Hotel gives an upscale luxurious feel. The lobby is beautifully decorated with modern fixtures and furniture. The bar area is always so neat and inviting. The staff is always pleasant. The rooms are spacious and clean. The only thing missing from this hotel is a pool.

Stayed one night and the hotel was clean and the staff was very nice. The water pressure was nonexistent and the beds were pretty hard, but the room was clean and spacious. We prefer a colder room and the thermostat was locked at 65, though the temp never actually reached 65.

Great stay!! Put us in the middle of everything. Room was comfortable and cozy!! Only improvement I noticed was the wallpaper could have been applied better. Not a deal breaker but, could be a quirk for some.

The good: the location if you are visiting Duke, the cleannesses, the room layout, bed, pillows and bedding The bad: costumer service, receptionist, quality I had $10 food credit, that according to the receptionist could use for restaurant or food shop. The 2 cold coffees I took ended up being $10.75, so I asked her to charge my credit card for the $0.75, but my card was charged the entire $10.75. $10 is not breaking anyone’s bank, but the deception bothered me.
