room was fine, appeared clean, water was cold and took a while to get it warm or even hot, the hotel is under renovation, it looks old and not well kept over time, but other than that we had no issue

This property was under renovation. It was unsafe, I couldn't find ice and the list goes on and on. They should have posted something on the website. The staff was helpful so this is NO reflection on them. They should give anyone staying there a discount due to the mess. Just being honest.
This hotel is very convenient if you are seeing a show at the Grand Ballroom which is right across the street. It was comfortable and clean and also affordable. The staff was friendly. Would recommend for a quick stopover in the downtown Wilmington area.
They are remodeling so a little messy the front stuff was nice but could have been nicer :/ room was good the air conditioning was on the 40 and room was freezing had to put heating on to 70 other then that everything was good.

Disliked: Staff & service
The hotel is located in a great area of the city, walkable to businesses, shopping, and restaurants.
We were charged $94 dollars for food/beverage on 9/28/25 when we arrived an the Metro Cafe in the hotel was not open. We will make a formal complaint to management.
My room was so quiet it was like I was the only one on the floor. Felt very safe. Would definitely recommend this hotel.
My only issue was the construction in the area made it confusing to get in the parking garage. Don’t trust your GPS for that part.
