**Neighborhood**

Our property is located in the heart of a vibrant and diverse Durham neighborhood, which is one of the things we love most about it. You'll find an eclectic mix of people, cultures and backgrounds here. As part of the neighborhood culture, don't be surprised if friendly neighbors relax on their porches and say hello as you come and go.

The lively community atmosphere means you may hear more ambient noise than on a quiet suburban street - kids playing, music, and the sounds of daily life. It's a real slice of Durham city living.

While we find it to be a warm and welcoming area, as with any mixed-income urban neighborhood, it's wise to take the same safety precautions you normally would in a city. Be aware of your surroundings, lock your car doors, and don't leave valuables unattended. We live just a few blocks away ourselves, but if you have any concerns during your stay, we're close by and happy to help.

We want every guest to feel fully comfortable with their choice to stay here. If after considering the urban environment you decide it's not the right fit, no worries at all. As long as you cancel within 24 hours of booking, we'll happily provide a full refund. If you do decide to stay, we look forward to welcoming you and know you'll enjoy experiencing this colorful pocket of Durham!
