I liked the Location closer to the Restaurant where I had a great dinner after hours of driving to Wilmington. I didn't like the limitation they put on the TV sound couldn't go lower in volume. They can be more creative by providing Info about sight seeing around. Glad I enjoyed more at Wrightsville beach.

Very comfortable beds! Looked exactly like the pictures on the site! Very clean & modern. Nice desk area to work at. Wonderful shower with a great showerhead! Staff was friendly and accommodating! I stayed down the road at a pricier hotel on the beach and wished I could swap out the two hotels!

There was on positive and that was the young lady to the left that checked me in. I had issues with tv and internet not working and the other young lady (Looks Puerto Rican hung up on me and then apologize saying the GM told her to hang up and be rude. She seems to be under horrible manager and once I talked to him, he felt bad that the items weren't functioning in my room then says "You can check out and leave knowing all other hotels were booked elsewhere, then he bragged about owning plenty of other hotels. Hilton should really investigate this guy. I will not deal with disrespect and one day he could pay the ultimate price trying to talk down on someone.

If you are sensitive to odors, do not stay here! The entire hotel smells of mold and there is an attempt to cover it up with fragrance that is pumping out in the lobby. We were given room 319. I’m almost certain that the worst of the odor is coming from the ac unit in the room. I tried to get a new room but they said they were sold out. I decided to sweat with the ac off to make the odor more bearable and fell asleep with my hands over my mouth and nose. They did switch us to 305 the next day and there was an improvement in the odor but it was still pretty gross.

We love this staff, the breakfast was very good. The pool was cold but nice. The carpet in the hallways would be rated 1 star. I would return but wear shoes in the hall way for every one. Again the entire staff, reception, breakfast attendant and cleaning staff were excellent 👌

The property was ok. The biggest issue is night one the fire alarm went off. Then no hot water. Called the front desk and was told no one else has complained. I explained we were going out and was tons someone would and fix it while we were gone. Got back and still no hot water. As we were checking out an amazing girl was shocked to hear no one had told us that there was no hot water due to a water heater issue. So three days and no hot water. Plus there was a heavy cleaner smell the whole time. Even the tv was odd because it automatically went to a volume of 76 when turned on and wouldn’t go below 13. For the money, I just wish that they had been upfront.
