“Carolina Inn's campus perch”

The Carolina Inn is a lovely five-star stay — an elegant warm historic Southern building that relaxes from the lobby, clean tidy exquisitely-decorated rooms with comfortable bedding, soft lighting and high-quality toiletries, timely cleaning, an on-campus spot convenient for UNC orientation and Franklin Street, a fresh-ingredient breakfast one guest calls the trip's best food memory, and warm professional impeccable service throughout. Caveats though: the restaurant's strange split-billing policy rankled a dinner pair, one guest needed cabs for shops and restaurants, and the breakfast ran a bit dear.
