Therefore, we charge an extra $51.50 pet cleaning fee that is passed on entirely to our cleaning crew. This ensures that they spend the extra time removing any pet hair from linens and towels, spend extra time cleaning baseboard trim, wiping fan blades, cleaning HVAC filters, etc. If you do not select "Add Pet" when booking and you stay with a pet, the $51.50 cleaning fee will be requested from you at checkout. Please select Add Pet in your initial booking to avoid this interaction. \- We absolutely prohibit any and all smoking and drug use at our properties. This behavior makes it extremely difficult to turnover the unit for a new guest likely arriving the same day of your departure. If we find that you have smoked in our property, there will be an extra $200 cleaning fee, you will receive a negative review, and you will not be able to book at our properties in the future. This is a non-negotiable. Do not book if you plan to smoke. \- No parties allowed or loud music after 8pm. Many of our properties are connected duplexes and out of courtesy for neighbors, we ask that there be no gatherings or loud music or unauthorized guests not listed on the reservation. If family or friends are stopping by, please kindly let us know ahead of time . ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the apartment: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Limited onsite parking (max 1 space) - Onsite parking includes off-street options ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Stovetop - Toaster ### Bedrooms - Bedroom - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Hair dryer - Towels provided ### Entertainment - Smart TV ### Outdoor areas - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Desk - Desk chair - Office ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly ### Suitability/Accessibility - Hardwood flooring in public areas - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - Unit size: 600 square feet ## Similar properties ![1 bedroom, desk, iron/ironing board, WiFi](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/115000000/114940000/114939000/114938968/fb4171c8.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### The secret Manor Durham - Kitchen - Pet-friendly - Air conditioning - Outdoor space 10 Exceptional 1 review [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-21&endDate=2025-10-22&selected=114938968&PinnedHotelID=114938968&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Microwave, oven, stovetop, paper towels](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/109000000/108580000/108573600/108573501/a3f0c481.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Cozy 1-bedroom in charming Durham East Durham - Washer - Dryer - Pet-friendly - Air conditioning 7.0 Good 2 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-21&endDate=2025-10-22&selected=108573501&PinnedHotelID=108573501&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/98000000/97060000/97057500/97057414/35ead99d.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Duke Hospital Zero-Step 1BR Durham - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet-friendly 9.2 Wonderful 5 reviews CA $95 CA $333 total includes taxes & fees Oct 8 - Oct 9 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-08&endDate=2025-10-09&selected=97057414&PinnedHotelID=97057414&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/96000000/95380000/95372400/95372360/fa842286.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Recently Renovated Chic Durham Farmhouse East Durham - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet-friendly 9.0 Wonderful 8 reviews CA $97 CA $245 total includes taxes & fees Oct 15 - Oct 16 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-15&endDate=2025-10-16&selected=95372360&PinnedHotelID=95372360&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/96000000/95380000/95372400/95372327/f54077a5.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### New & Clean 2 Bed Walltown Home.

Jan 16, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great little place close to Duke This a cute little duplex that was perfect for my stay near Duke university hospital. I was there for several weeks and had great communication with the host/owner. There were a few issues that got resolved immediately and even had a few extensions that were handled with ease. The neighborhood is a mix of incomes, generations, and ethnic backgrounds but i always felt safe and absolutley no trouble of any kind. It even has a small back yard if you want the space. One bedroom and no pull out sofa but plenty of room and spacious living area and huge walk in closet. I felt the bedroom could have used a tv or a dresser but for the price this was an awesome pick. ##### Robin W. Stayed 47 nights in Nov 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### David W., South Jersey, USA Nov 27, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Welcome to the Lakewood Section of Durham We stayed in the left hand side of the cottage. The bed, linen and the pillows were 4 star quality. Clean towels were available for the shower, with nice hot water, and plenty of it! The kitchen is modern, the toaster is the pop-up type, so use the microwave or oven for croissants, pizza, etc. There is a large closet behind the bedroom with shelving, rods and hangers. Use the washer/dryer, the host provided us laundry pods (we used only the dryer for our bath towels). A porch catches the morning sun, with the temp barely above 40 we toughed it out for our coffee. We met many of the neighbors as we walked our Yorkie, Jackson. There's a Red Lion supermarket within walking distance (it's a truck, but doable). Off street parking is provided. Driving to downtown is no problem. A well lit mini-mart is at the foot of the block, but its mainly for snacks. Our hosts were quick to answer any queries. No problems. ##### David W. Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2023 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Staypineapple, An Elegant Hotel, Union Square](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Francisco-Hotels-Staypineapple.h10266.Hotel-Information) > > [Spa Hotels in Washington](https://www.expedia.ca/Destinations-In-Washington-Spa-Hotel.0-0-d249-tSpaHotel.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Beach Hotel in Wildwood](https://www.expedia.ca/Wildwood-Hotels-Beach-Hotel.0-0-d10401-tBeachHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Banana Bungalow Hollywood Hotel & Hostel](https://www.expedia.ca/Los-Angeles-Hotels-Banana-Bungalow-Hollywood-Hotel-Hostel.h27189378.Hotel-Information) > > [Cheap Hotels in Niagara Falls](https://www.expedia.ca/Niagara-Falls-Hotels-Cheap-Hotels.0-0-d6023515-tCheapHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Langley](https://www.expedia.ca/Langley-Hotels.d8530.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Duck Cove Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Margaree-Harbour-Hotels-Duck-Cove-Inn.h15436660.Hotel-Information) > > [Kimpton Palladian Hotel by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Seattle-Hotels-Kimpton-Palladian-Hotel.h9490029.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Whitchurch-Stouffville](https://www.expedia.ca/Whitchurch-Stouffville-Hotels.d553248634016041768.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hotels in The Blue Mountains](https://www.expedia.ca/The-Blue-Mountains-Hotels.d6129678.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Vancouver](https://www.expedia.ca/Vancouver-Hotels.d178315.Travel-Guide-Hotels) ### Flights > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Lisbon District (LIS)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/lis/toronto-to-lisbon) > > [flights from gregorio luperon intl airport](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/airports/pop/flights-from-gregorio-luperon-intl-airport) > > [Flights from Edmonton (YEG) to Lipjan (PRN)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yeg/prn/edmonton-to-pristina) > > [Flights from Sidney (YYJ) to Raleigh (RDU)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyj/rdu/victoria-to-raleigh) > > [Flights from Montreal (YUL) to Seville (SVQ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yul/svq/montreal-to-seville) > > [Flights from Montreal (YUL) to Cranbrook (YXC)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yul/yxc/montreal-to-cranbrook) > > [Sterling Blue](https://www.expedia.ca/Arajet-Flights.cDM.Travel-Guide-Airlines) > > [Flights from Marmagao (GOI) to Toronto (YYZ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/goi/yyz/goa-to-toronto) > > [Flights from Edmonton (YEG) to Sidney (YYJ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yeg/yyj/edmonton-to-victoria) > > [Flights from Kelowna (YLW) to Brisbane (BNE)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/ylw/bne/kelowna-to-brisbane) > > [Flights from Montreal (YUL) to Bamako (BKO)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yul/bko/montreal-to-bamako) > > [Flights from Abbotsford (YXX) to Cranbrook (YXC)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yxx/yxc/abbotsford-to-cranbrook) ### Cars > [Car rentals near 6-seater chairlift](https://www.expedia.ca/Car-Rentals-In-6-Seater-Chairlift.d553248621563225316.Car-Rental-Guide) > > [Enterprise Car Rentals In Castlegar](https://www.expedia.ca/Enterprise-Car-Rentals-In-Castlegar.d6033416-c15.Car-Rental-Guide-Suppliers) > > [Car rentals in Toronto](https://www.expedia.ca/Car-Rentals-In-Toronto.d178314.Car-Rental-Guide) ### Packages > [Norris Geyser Basin](https://www.expedia.ca/Norris-Geyser-Basin-Yellowstone-National-Park.d503320.Vacation-Attraction) > > [Las Vegas Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Las-Vegas.d178276.Destination-Travel-Guides) > > [all inclusive vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/theme-vacations/all-inclusive-vacations)
