Durham Visit
Served the purpose to accommodate 8 adults. The photos represent the unit on a high level. Solely a rental with no attention to upkeep. Sparsely decorated (which I liked). Sheets and towels were clean but old. Rugs had not been washed or cleaned (maybe ever). We laughed at the “Clean Me” on the stove vent. Dishwasher was hanging out of cabinet. Notified property manager - was not fixed as promised. Not a gross place to stay - just not one I would stay in again.
