Courtyard by Marriott in Durham is a comfortable stay, works for its price range. Nothing to get excited about or really to complain about. When we checked in, we found the bathtub wasn't draining well; took them a day to fix it, but they did. Pool looked nice!

No clean towels at the pool. Beds we got were hard as rocks. Breakfast available means pay for it. Had I known that I would have never booked our stay here. Thankfully we were only staying one night.

Spouse and I stayed two nights for a golf tournament. Very convenient and safe feeling location. Some updates in progress, but a little worn in places. Starbucks location in lobby during breakfast hours and associate was very nice, However , with only one person working it, there was some delay in getting breakfast.
