Best Location in Chapel Hill

by carolinabbq

My family has been staying at the University Inn in Chapel Hill for years while visiting our daughter at UNC. We really enjoy the hotel's staff. They are usually undergraduates at UNC also and so are very knowledgeable about the area. Since the hotel is located on Finley Golf Course and just a mile from UNC, I usually have to time to visit campus and play a quick round of golf while in town.

• Pros: Friendly staff, good location
• Cons: Shuttle service is only available on weekdays
