Guests at the luxury Franklin Hotel in Chapel Hill will probably be surprised to know it is a former bus station.
The rooms feature such luxury features as their own doorbells, 32-inch wall-mounted televisions with more than 145 Channels and XM Satellite Radio from speakers in the ceiling.
The pillow menu numbers five.
“It’s a destination you want to come to and come back to,” Michael Donaldson, the hotel’s general manager, told The Chapel Hill News, N. C. McClatchy-Tribune Business News.
Penthouse suites go for as much as $850 a night.
