Holiday Inn Express Durham by IHG

2.5 star property
8.8 out of 10, Excellent, (840)
"Clean & attractive. My only area of concern is that the hotel, which I paid in full before hand, charges you an additional $75 in case you incur charges at the hotel. I did not, as I paid for my dinner separately, and the $75 was supposed to be returned by the end of the day when I checked out, which was yesterday, but I have not been credited the $75 so far. That would definitely discourage me from staying in a property run by this organization again."
