Duke 2BR + 2BA @ American Village

Duke University (5 min drive) - Duke Law School (5 min drive) - VA Hospital (6 min drive) - Duke Hospital (6 min drive)

Beautiful 2BR house with two high quality king foam mattresses and fenced yard. Perfect for dogs and long term stays. 1mi from Duke University, 1mi from Duke Law school. Very close to: RTP, UNC, Duke Hospital and downtown Durham. Basketball hoop in driveway (basketball provided) and a very enjoyable outdoor deck connected to the master bedroom that leads into fenced yard for doggie time! Guests have full access to entire property and host is available 24/7 via chat / text. Washer and dryer make this location ideal for long term stays. Great neighborhood for walks.

This unit is proudly an official QuantumSuite. Expect a higher level of service from a QuantumSuite as you would from a traditional hotel. Here’s why:

- Cleanliness: Our units are cleaned top to bottom for each new guest. This includes all kitchen appliances, floors, and dishes, along with new sheets. We sanitize and disinfect all touchable surfaces, remotes and switches. If you think something isn’t clean, tell us. We’ll clean it again!

- We use ultra high quality foam mattresses in all our units. The bed is the most important part of the stay because you spend most of your time in it.

- Bad backs are welcome! We get many compliments from guests after their stay about the mattresses we use. They are hand picked and provided in partnership with the Mattress Firm and are available at a discount to guests through an arrangement that we have with them, ask in chat. We welcome your sore back on our bed; we know that you will love them and get a great night's sleep!

- High Quality Sheets! What’s the point of having an awesome mattress without having soft, comfy sheets? Our units boast 100% Organic cotton cooling percale weave and soft breathable bed sheets and pillow cases. Lay down, slip into them and enjoy how fresh and comfortable they are.

- Fiber optic internet is always in all our units where available with Ethernet hand-offs for a direct, private connection up to 3GB: faster than WiFi! If you need additional Ethernet ports, we are happy to provide you with an ethernet switch free of charge, just ask us in chat.

- 24/7 Customer Service: Having any issue with your stay, want to make changes to your booking or need help? Customer service is available to you 24/7. Customer service inquiries are typically answered by the owner or a decision maker. We do not outsource or use robotic overseas workers to answer your chat. You are ALWAYS talking to a manager and we love to help.

- Self check-in always: You will receive a door code on the day of check-in to allow yourself in. Our door locks are mechanical and do not rely on electricity nor the internet to work. When you check-in, we are standing by through our smart doorbell in case you have any trouble.

- Neighborhood concierge: Want to know about local restaurants and points of interest from someone that has lived in the area for years? Need help finding a trustworthy realtor to find a new home in the area or long term rental? Our staff are happy to answer any questions you have about the area and love to help.

- All our units are entire homes. You are never sharing your space. The outside of our units are constantly monitored as all motion events are checked for anything out of the ordinary and all our units are well insured.

- Pet Friendly: We allow dogs and cats and have a cleaning process that removes all the hair for allergic guests.

- Light Blocking Shades in all Bedrooms: Enjoy sleeping in the dark!

Ring doorbell is used outside the unit near the door.

Perfect for the holidays
Property was perfect for our needs. Rooms are large. Backyard was awesome for our dogs. Bring a towel to clean paws as it does get pretty muddy back there! Over all it was a fantastic place to stay while visiting our daughter for the holidays.

Meeting new grandbaby
This nice little duplex was a relaxing place to stay and work while visiting my new grandbaby. The neighborhood felt very safe and offered nice walkability. My dogs loved the back yard. I was lucky to have cooler than normal August weather which made the back deck perfect for some remote work that needed to be done and there was a fine workspace in the master bedroom as well. I had some issues with slow app refreshing getting the check-in information but that all resolved quickly.

Not as advertised
First this is not a stand alone house as advertised it’s a duplex. This is also the first VRBO we were required to purchase an insurance policy for or leave a ridiculously high security deposit! This is also the first VRBO I have ever dealt with that I had to supply a picture of my drivers license. We arrived to a garbage can and recycle can jammed to the brim giving us the feeling that the property was being neglected before we even entered the unit! We entered to find the carpeting severely stained with what looks like a trail of oil throughout! The couch has the vinyl peeling off with a cover that doesn’t stay in place covering it. The desk is a decent chair placed in front of a flimsy folding table. The fenced in back yard was a disaster with a broken to pieces patio block at the bottom of the stairs and dog poop in the yard. I wouldn’t let our dogs out there! The deck is in need of a thorough cleaning and new deck furniture as the existing has seen better days. We paid for 10 days stayed for 3 and moved to a hotel as not to totally ruin our trip! Would be a decent place if it had the much needed TLC!
