Cool little hotel with retro vibe. Hotel has built in parking deck for easy parking and check in. The hotel could not be any more convenient to downtown Durham (restaurants, bars, DPAC, Bulls, etc). Staff is extremely helpful and friendly.

We booked a king room and got a double? Large gap under the room door. Stained wallpaper. Breakfast vouchers didn't amount to much, it took forever to get our food, then it was frozen in the middle. Coffee was good. Cute, eclectic place, convenient to DPAC. Ms. Evette at the desk was great, but another lady was not.

Location to downtown was nice. Parking was terrible. I paid $50 to park in parking garage and was charged an additional $80 plus dollars to get out of the garage. This was after I had already paid for parking. Was told I would receive a QR code to use to get out of the garage and I never received it. Wa told I would only be reimbursed the difference of the $50 I paid

Our room was very nice ( after they first offered me a room with no windows!) the pool area felt more like and old motel. Bar had no club soda overall it felt like a young persons hotel.

The Unscripted-Durham is a cute/retro boutique hotel smack dab in middle of hopping downtown. Check-in wasn’t ideal but every single employee I interacted with was extremely nice/helpful. Parking was *not* included in my Expedia package, which came as an unpleasant surprise since it was conveyed to be included. The small pool and very large pool-lounge area are clearly the “stars of the show.” Food was decent, but would recommend checking out nearby eateries/bars over convenience of staying in.

Property was clean and unique. I wasn't happy with the hotel parking. We had to pay 25.00 extra for parking in the deck. This wasn't disclosed in the initial reservation. Also the code to leave the parking deck didn't work, either. Thanks to a nice lady, we were able to get out of the deck. Other than this, the stay was fine.
