Loved the friendly staff and fun design elements.

Hated the air conditioning, which was extraordinarily loud.

Location!

Location. Location. Location. I traveled with my college seniors to check out UNC for grad school. I debated on staying on campus or The Graduate. Given the location on Franklin Street, this ended up being perfect for us. Restaurants and shops all walkable. A fun vibe. Very clean with updated bathrooms.

6.0

Spacious, airy, and clean—though the soundproofing isn't particularly good.

You should add toothbrushes, toothpaste, and combs; this way, if guests staying nearby decide to spend the night—and haven't brought many belongings—they will have something to use in case they've forgotten their own supplies.

Not worth the high prices.

4.0

The location is great and the hotel is cute.

The room was ridiculously expensive and for the price, the bed was the most uncomfortable bed I've ever slept in. Pure springs. They offered to put a blanket on top to "fix" it. Additionally the room had 2 packets of terrible instant coffee that they never restocked or replenished. The amenities were low budget hotel and it's a shame.
