Great value for the price! The hotel was clean, quiet, and conveniently located just a few miles from Wilmington’s downtown riverfront. The room was comfortable, the AC was nice and cold, and we slept well. The fresh coffee in the lobby and variety of grab-and-go breakfast options were a nice bonus.

These people were great. We were able to check in a little early and though the property is old, it has been refreshed. The bed was comfortable with plenty of pillows. The bath was clean, towels small but fluffy. Breakfast included was very adequate. The best thing, it was very clean. Parking was motel style - right in front of our door. AC worked well too. If needed, we would stay there again.

As a woman traveling by herself, I did not feel comfortable staying at this motel and ended up cutting my time there short. When I returned the first evening to my room, there were several men silently loitering outside right by my room’s door, and I did not feel safe there. Also the room was really worn-out, decrepit and smelly. The family who run the motel were very nice, but that’s the only good thing I could say.

The room itself was updated and clean. The staff were nice. The outside of building could use some sprucing up. There was some sketchy people in parking lot all night and didn't feel the safest. Breakfast was not great. Coffee and prepackaged muffins.

Staff was nice, room clean, floor has a bad spot from where it had some plumbing work done so the floor is week. Did not have enough towels/wash clothes for the 3 people that was staying. But for last minute trip and the price, I would stay there again.
