Very nice I have stayed in many Wilmington motels since the 1980s as Wrightsville
and Kure beach are my favorites. I shall stay at Spark the next time I visit. I like the location and the motel was very pleasant. The staff was very helpful and nice.
The room was very clean. It was exactly what I needed for the size. The bed was firm but not too firm. Location it was difficult to find. It’s nice and close to the airport.
Hotel is in a good location, public transportation and shopping within walking distance
Helpful and courteous staff
Room was clean with good amenities like fridge, AC, iron; breakfast included,
Overall a very good experience for my first time in Wilmington, NC
I travel to Wilmington several times a month to complete trainings. I love coming to this hotel due to the staff being polite, cleanliness and location.
Great location! Staff was friendly and helpful across the board. Hotel was very clean and well maintained. Will definitely stay again when I’m in the area.
The front desk staff was very friendly, the pool was nice for the kids after being at the beach during the day. Close to wrightsville beach and the restaurants in Wilmington on the boardwalk.
The staff was helpful, especially our second night, with extremely loud neighbors. The room was odd…very spacious with a ton of open cube storage, but the “seating area” consisted of one chair under a lamp, just sort of floating alone at the end of the bed. There was certainly space for a second chair at the very least. While the bed was comfortable, the pillows were horrible, with zero firmness.
Will we stay here again? Probably not.
Room was big with two beds, nice size refrigerator with a small sink and countertop. The room was clean. Showerhead had nice pressure. Bathroom was a good size. Air conditioning worked well. Staff was friendly throughout stay.
Decent hotel. Basic good breakfast. Good coffee.
It kind of feels like motel 6 and Hilton had a baby but it was very clean and efficient with top notch customer service from the staff. My only complaint was a staff member smoking near the entrance. Some people don’t do well walking through that.
Internet was down during check-in and throughout my stay. Rooms were clean. Breakfast was very weak at best, do better than just hard-boiled eggs and bagels. I’ve stayed for much cheaper of a price and had a much better experience
Pleasant 4 day stay. Staff was extremely nice and helpful!!! Room was clean. I felt comfortable and safe!! Breakfast bar was fresh and clean. Dog friendly was a plus for me!!! I recommend Sparks it was affordable, clean, friendly staff and security cameras in every corner!
