I like where the hotel is located in downtown Wilmington. The only thing is that parking is not free. The staff was friendly. Also the breakfast is nice and made to order omelets were great. I was surprised that didn’t have out a diary alternative at the coffee station. I didn’t ask, but I maybe they have upon request.
