This Hotel is very clean, quite, and a great location on the riverfront. My wife and visit Wilmington alot, we have just found a perfect location for a quite getaway. We loved our room located on the 1st floor looking out on the river, and across to the U S.S North Carolina. Yes we will be staying here again in the near future. 10 out of 10 Stars.

The elevator was out of service and staying on the 3rd floor having to climb stairs at my level of medical issues really sucked. The room, while had a great view, definitely needed a revamp with painting, caulking, etc.

The property is in a great location, right on the river walk in downtown Wilmington. But, the property itself is extremely dated, they have no amenities, the internet didn’t work, the phone in my room didn’t work, there’s no airport shuttle. I checked out early, but I will say they were good enough to refund me for the second night. There are two other properties that basically share the same parking lot as the best western, and both are exponentially nicer with prices that are comparable. The little bit of extra money is worth it.

We were somewhat disappointed. The elevator was not functioning, we were charged $15 for parking that we didn't expect, and our bathroom floor was VERY wet when we walked in. The location is good, the view of the river from our room is very nice, and the woman who manages the breakfast room is very friendly.

Nice pet friendly hotel with great view

Ours was a single night stay with our dog. Very nice front desk checkin and breakfast was just fine. The view was wonderful. Elevator was under repair so the stairwell had to be used to get to ice and breakfast- really not a problem but they could certainly use updating.
