"I was quite disappointed. While the location was great and we enjoyed the view of the river, the room was not as expected. Our room did not get cleaned daily as was promised, we never had water without going to the lobby, and the towels left a lot to be desired. Even with the blinds wide open, the room was dark and felt almost dreary, not cozy. And while I was aware there would be no fridge, one would have been nice. We paid for the view and that was about it."
"Valet parking was exceptional and very responsive. Employees were friendly and efficient. On the other hand, corporate issues include—-Breakfast had A LOT to be desired, few choices, pre-packaged, no diverse items, few hot foods. Room had no ice bucket, no table lamp, poor lighting in bathroom mirror. No iron. Door stuck. All minor inconveniences"
"This hotel is at the convention center end of Wilmington which means it's surrounded by boring, bland hotels and parking lots. It is however the most interesting hotel in the area since it incorporates an historic rail warehouse. The loft style rooms with the cubicle wall bathrooms, slider door, and curtain really aren't that great. Passing trend which is already passé."
