Well maintained historical building with a nice onsite restaurant that has a nice wine list. Regular quality king bed with tons of pillows. Refrigerator, water, and Nespresso coffee in the room. Only negative was no microwave in the room to reheat my leftovers, but they do have one in the 1st floor near check-in. Centrally located on UNC - Chapel Hill campus.
