Hotel Ballast Wilmington, Tapestry Collection by Hilton

8/10 Good

"The room was nice. Very good service at the resturants. Great river view. Convenient to downtown Wilmington."

Best Western Plus Coastline Inn

"Ok so first… the elevator was broken but we knew that going in that we would have to take the heel toe express up the stairs. BUT we had to bring our dog at the last minute and they accommodated us with zero issues. They comped our parking to make up for it. I LOVE staying at this property. The breakfast was not great because of being in the lobby but that’s not usually the case. The people are so nice! Highly recommend."
