This was the second time staying at Arrive. We enjoyed our stay. They have nice sitting areas around the nicely landscaped property. We played cornhole and sat in the Andirondack chairs and played cards. They have a cute little bar, and the drinks were very good. It is conveniently located and within walking distance to many fun spots throughout Wilmington. We had breakfast in their restaurant. It was quite good.

Enjoyed our stay. The staff was extremely helpful and friendly, the room was clean and comfortable, and location was fantastic. Rooms surround a cute courtyard that has several cozy seating areas, a cornhole area, and wonderful outdoor bar. This hotel is great for couples, and would be a fantastic location to put up relatives for a wedding or family reunion. The Dram Yard, a small restaurant on site was an unexpected surprise. The food was excellent and priced quite reasonably.

The Arrive is fine. It's a clean, updated nice room in a good location. The amenities don't exist, no coffee or breakfast or anything unless you're paying. Parking isn't free, but free parking is easy on the street. The room itself was just ok, clearly an old renovated motel. No body wash, TV remote didn't work, no wifi to be found. Staff, from our experience, was kinda cold and not very friendly. It's fine, but it's not worth $300+ a night.
