Liked: Loved our two-night stay at the Graduate in Chapel Hill! My close friend was visiting from out of state, and I wanted to be able to show her Chapel Hill and UNC. Since The Graduate is right on West Franklin St, we could walk less than 30 seconds to get a meal and also felt safe while staying in the heart of Franklin.The staff are super sweet! One of my favorite things is that I never felt judged or watched in the common areas (something that I worry about in big hotels). They?re always available and very welcoming, but never intrusive.We had a room with a balcony, which was so lovely. The hallways are peaceful and easy to navigate, and the decor is so Carolina-esque you can?t help but love it. The rooms aren?t cramped at all, and with the balcony, we could choose to stand outside and look over Franklin, sit inside to work at the desk, and everything in between. 9/10, and this is coming from someone usually intimidated by hotel stays haha.
Disliked: Small warning: the bottled water here is CRAZY expensive. Like, ridiculously so. Also, you?ll have to play some twister to plug a laptop charger into an electrical outlet ? unlike the plentiful USB phone charging options, they aren?t in the most convenient of spaces.
