Unscripted Durham - JDV by Hyatt

Really cute modern hotel with an amazing location. Many cute shops and restaurants super close by. As a Hyatt globalist, I got upgraded to a wonderful studio suite (room 409). I would imagine the other rooms would be smaller and more basic. What is a true standout of the hotel is the staff. Every single one of them went out of their way to make sure I had a wonderful stay. Really appreciate you *Yvette*!!!

We celebrated our anniversary dinner in one of the igloos and thought we’d just stay one night so we don’t have to rush back home. We are about little over an hour away so it was nice not having to drive. The hotel is in a cool area of Durham. Very hipster and industrial which is our favorite vibe. Parking was easy and plentiful (although $25!!!) I don’t care for places that charge you parking when you are staying overnight. We got a pool view which it seems like this hotel was or laid out like a motel. I believe there is 4 floors. Floors 3 and 4 have a pool view. We were in room 424 which had a nice view of the pool and the igloos. I imagine this would be fun in the summer when the pool is swimable. The room needed a deep cleaning as the walls were filthy.

Decided to choose Unscripted for some photos for an upcoming project. The older look of the hotel was what I looking for and it did my photos justice. The hotel gives off an 60's, 70's or 80's vibe which I thought was cool. The rooms were nice and comfortable. The igloo restaurant added and touch of Christmas holiday vibe. Pleasant views of downtown Durham from the pool deck. Overall my stay was very good.

Excellent location, great area as well. Hotel staff was wonderful. However our room didnt have a window, and the only other time that's happened for me was staying downtown Manhattan. So, very unexpected and disappointing. Great time otherwise! My boyfriend and I were able to walk to DPAC, and we recommend the nearby restaurant "Queeny's"

IGLOO RESERVATION EXPERIENCE; We were called 30 minutes before our reservation and informed that the temperature was dropping below 20 degrees and that the igloos were not maintaining heat. At that point it was far too last-minute to make other plans, so we decided to show up anyway. Once we arrived, it took almost 20 minutes to get seated, all while standing outside in freezing temperatures. When we were finally seated, it was not the cozy, well-appointed igloo that’s advertised. Ours lacked blankets, warmth, and the aesthetic shown online, which was disappointing given the price and expectation. I will say the manager and our server were very accommodating, and I appreciate their effort. However, the drinks were overwhelmingly strong, and the food was honestly below average for a place
