Stayed in the 2 bedroom suite which was very nice. There is road noise and the bar closes fairly early. We ate in the Thai which was just ok, the breakfast was very good and the 5 items were enough for us. The staff are fantastic

It was a short stay, but would book again in the future when we visit Durham again. The food at the Thai restaurant is very delicious, and you are recommended to visit.
