We had to cancel our reservation due to an illness in the family.
Hope to use your hotel for our next visit of seeing our grandchildren.
Thank you
I always get nervous when i have to bring my dog to a hotel. Everyone was so kind about us having her there. Breakfast was a spectacular spread and staff was amazing
I really enjoyed everything about this property. One area that could be improved is providing USB ports in the rooms.
Wanted to mention the whole staff was very friendly and nice.
I stay here at least once a month while in Wilmington for business. For what ever reason, it is always damp and musty smelling on first floor around elevators. Not welcoming when you come in but the rooms always seem alright.
They didn’t have our rooms together. Check in clerk had her kid behind the counter. There was a person sleeping in one of our rooms. The next clerk blamed us for getting food without checking the room.
