We enjoyed the location and walkability of the area. When we checked in it was evident the bathtub had not been cleaned. The front desk receptionist offered to move us but when she checked there were no available rooms. The ladies at the front desk were very friendly and helpful. Unfortunately though our room, specifically the bathroom, was not up to standard.

There is no parking at this hotel however, they offer valet for $29 a night +7 dollars for SUV. Or truck. Which is a terrible. You can use the city meters for parking and it’s three dollars an hour from 6 PM to 9 AM. It is free. We were fortunate to find a city meter right in front of the hotel that we pulled into check in. We ended up staying in that spot and only cost us $15 to park with the city meter. The hotel location is excellent for walking tons of shops and restaurants within them blocks. Great continental breakfast. Clean hotel and friendly staff.

Check in time was 3:00. We arrived close to 4:00 and were told our rooms wouldn’t be ready for another hour because housekeeping was behind. No solution was offered as to what to do about parking or luggage. The air conditioning was broken in the lobby, so it was stifling hot. Then, I was told we only booked one room when we had booked two. The front desk staff was not helpful at all. In addition, my brother in law arrived in his room to see the toilet filled with feces. I would never stay here again.

The guests next door has kids crying until 11:30pm. The room was so humid and the carpet felt moist. We thought it would clear up after a couple of hours but it was still in incredibly humid. The room smelled musty. The bathroom had a hook that was about to fall off. There wasnt enough hooks to hang all the towels.

The bathroom sink overflow was dirty( appeared to have mold). The desk staff ( 6/28 day shift) left the desk and I observed her smoking just outside the main entrance. The smell of cigarette smoke was very strong at that entrance.I think it is not appropriate for anyone to be smoking where others will have to smell it.

Good choice in a good location

Nice hotel, excellent location, easy walk to many shopping and dining options. The Wilmington River district area seems to attract some unhoused people, but doesn't feel unsafe.
