Definitely would not stay again

Overall the hotel was nice, good location, comfortable bed. However, I could not actually enjoy said bed due to the excessive hallway noise. Partly just due to the location of my room. I was at the end of the hall directly next to the exit door from the hotel. Everytime this door was used, it slammed shut and this was very audible in my room. Unrelated to just an unlucky room location was housekeeping pounding on all the doors at a very early hour. My room had no do no disturb sign available, so I’m wondering if other rooms had this issue which led to the incessant ‘knock knock housekeeping’. I had to wait to shower until I had the unfortunate knock at my door because I didn’t want to be in the shower and have themselves help themselves into the room. Overall a very disappointing and unrestful stay. Two other hotels (aloft and a best western) in this exact location would be what I would lean towards next trip back.

Property is beautiful. The pool is very small with not even enough room for just the children. There is a nice scenery with a nice trail and is pet friendly. Our AC in the room was broken but fixed within reasonable timing. When going to breakfast there was a honest host. The bed and pillows were comfy!

This is a brand new hotel on a river marina, which I had a great view of. Everything was excellent. The staff was very personable and accomodating. The garage self parking was easy to access. Its a 5 minute walk to lots of dining and shopping options. it was lovely to enjoy the outstanding breakfast selections with a river view. I really enjoyed my 2 night stay.

Very nice place to stay in Wilmington! We had 2-queen river view room. The room was clean & the beds were comfortable. The liquid soap & lotion smelled great. The parking is in the adjacent convention center garage. It could get confusing how to get back into the hotel unless you park on the 2nd level. EV chargers are on the 3rd level. The included breakfast was wonderful! Eggs & omelettes made to order! They also have an evening happy hour reception which is a fun touch. I would definitely stay here again!

Things we loved: the friendliness of the staff, the cleanliness of the hotel, the hospitality, our cozy room, the daily breakfast and dinner at Steam, convenient location, many things located within walking distance, valet service, guest services checking in with us via text. One thing to note: this is a very pet friendly hotel. We had a barking dog in the room next to us. It only seemed to bark when the owner was away. So gratefully it didn't bark at night. If I had known about the pet policy, I would have asked for a room not adjacent to a pet owner. But otherwise the hotel provided an amazing trip for us. We would definitely consider returning.
