Wonderful

Location is good, lots of convenience/ food etc.
We had 2 rooms on the second floor. Just outside the elevator and at the end of the hallway near our rooms were blowers and dehumidifiers running full speed, I'm guessing because of excess water or some kind of flooding. My room in particular smelled overwhelmingly like mold. Our other room had terrible water pressure, shower barely worked.
I should have requested different rooms but long tiring days and returning late prevented me from asking the front desk. Whoever approved my room for rental should not have done so.
In general it seems the hotel knew there were problems on our floor but they wanted to rent/ occupy the rooms.
I liked that there were plenty of dining options near the hotel.
I did not like that the shower head was mounted so high that it was unreachable and could not be adjusted.
Nice place to stay. The breakfast was very good and the staff were so nice. They just shampooed the carpets, so our room had a little stink to it, but it wasn't bad at all. The beds are VERY soft. Maid service never came though.
Friendly and helpful staff. Room was clean, blinds were broken but able to get them closed enough to block the light.

The smell of the rooms is disgusting. Smells moldy and musty. Rooms were not cleaned each day. Not given fresh towels. For not such a cheap price it was disappointing. We stayed here last year as well and it was similar experience. I should have known better...we will not be back
Front desk staff Allison and Carrie were very friendly and helpful.
Very clean hotel in all areas.
Indoor pool was refreshing.
Breakfast was top notch and the staff was Awesome!
Highly recommend
There had to have been a water leak on our floor, our hotel room floor was greasy, and dirty. After cleanup from showers I wiped the floor down with the towels and they were blackened in color.
The room was humid and damp, the air conditioning barely ran. I’m from Wilmington and have moved elsewhere and come back periodically to visit.
I was not pleased with this locations cleanliness. I liked that the check in was quick and simple, and parking was open and close.
The bed was super uncomfortable to lay on no firmness at all, just sink into it. That’s all I got I stayed one evening and it’s my last time.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
This was not a good experience. Getting off the elevator after check in, there was trash and cardboard just sitting there. The hallway and room had a horrible, stale smell strong enough to give a headache. Air conditioner was very noisy. Worst stay EVER. Not recommended.
