Riverfront Downtown Wilmington Stay

This is a wonderful place to stay in downtown Wilmington! It is located in the heart of downtown with so many things to see and do. This place was perfect for my little family with a great view of the Cape Fear River and the Battleship. We will definitely stay here again.

We were just down for 1 night for a concert. It was great. My only complaint was there was a lot of noise outside late… skateboarders at 1:30am and loud music… other than that, it was lovely

Great Stay.

Everything was great. Only draw back is no onsite parking. We had to park two blocks away in a parking garage. Stop pick up pass then park car. Then go get car and come back to leave the pass. Not convenient. . .

Location, Location, Location

The location of this riverfront property is ideal. We have stayed in this area often over the last 10 years or so. The views are amazing, we enjoy the Farmer's mkt, being able to walk to everything. This property is well appointed. New policy of the HOA is that netting be placed on the balcony due to pigeons, it impedes the view somewhat & was disappointing but this is a great property. Highly recommend

Great location. Property OK, Bathroom sink not draining well, Ok furniture, good bed, weird to have vacuum out in the bedroom, nice to have a little porch with a good view. Wilmington was not our favorite city. Will not be coming back.
