"I was quite pleased with the WiFi performance, I expected to be throttled as that has been my experience in previous hotel stays but the WiFi in this hotel was fast and stable."
"The room (we had the penthouse) was fantastic and exceptional value for money."
"It is centrally located with great pubs, restaurants, and a teahouse literally around the corner, and its location at the end of a medieval bridge downtown made it very easy to visit Durham Cathedral and all the other downtown sites, as well as the university."
