    Downtown Wilmington
    5 nights
    4.0 star property
    8.2/10 - Very Good (1,644 reviews)
    "I was quite disappointed. While the location was great and we enjoyed the view of the river, the room was not as expected. Our room did not get cleaned daily as was promised, we never had water without going to the lobby, and the towels left a lot to be desired. Even with the blinds wide open, the room was dark and felt almost dreary, not cozy. And while I was aware there would be no fridge, one would have been nice. We paid for the view and that was about it."
