"The staff was very friendly and accommodating with any issues pertaining to our room. The remodeling did not have any negative impact on our stay and it was very enjoyable. The parking is convenient although you have to pay for it, it’s not much. As for the area of Wilmington itself they have great restaurants and it is very walkable , the location is right in the center of the city making the riverfront and their shopping district easily accessible on foot.
