We stayed for 3 days at the Grey Rock Inn and had a wonderful time. The room was spacious with a large comfy bed and we also had a sink in the room which was a nice addition. There are shared bathrooms and microwave ovens on every floor so we never ran into any inconveniences. All the residents were very friendly and easy to hang out with if you want to just sit and relax for a minute -- both porches are great for enjoying the night air and people-watching.

It's next door to the French Broad Food Co-op so running next door for some food was a nice (and frugal) option for us. It's also a few blocks away from many kinds of restaurants and Pack Square so if you want to eat out every meal that's an easy thing to do too.

We will definitely be back!

Highly recommended!
