Hi KAren,

I believe there are several of you asking this now as a new group

gets

ready to roll. We stayed at the Hawthorne Suites in Research

Triangle, but it is a 20 min drive to the clinic and hospital. I

would suggest calling 1-877-med-stay, but i think they are only open

during Mon-Fri hours. They have negotiated nice discounts with many

of the local hotels and motels up to half off. Homestead suites was

right at the exit we were and looked nice. Durham Tower is very

close

to the hospital and has suites. Many people have stayed at extended

stay America (but I am not sure if they have 2 room suites). Under

the archives on email of the day on the website for Sept., I copied a

long post about hotels from someone who did a lot of research in July

and Dr. R. kept it for the website. Check it out. I think it says

Durham Hotels or something like that.

Also, I searched from links on the right hand side of the web page

for hotels in Durham and found out a lot that way.
