The property is fairly new and in good shape. Clean and well maintained. My only complaint is the laundry products they use for linens and towels. The scent is Very Strong. For folks with sensitivity to synthetic chemically scented products it’s a bit overpowering. Please consider using unscented hypoallergenic laundry products.

The property itself and the service was wonderful. Our room was advertised as river view, and we could see the river lol but there were large amounts of debri and trash dumped right outside our balcony, so that was unexpected and an eyesore. Besides that, it was great!

We arrived after hours for check in. Staff communication was exceptional, mostly with Lori. They are now pet friendly for an extra fee. Second floor room had elevator access and balcony with tiny view of the Cape Fear River. Room was immaculate and appeared new. Beds had mattress topper and were too squishy soft for our bones. Very nice and quiet hotel.
