Perfect place for a weekend getaway

First time in Wilmington and this was the perfect place for us to stay. Great location, awesome view of the river front. Great restaurants, bars and shopping all in walking distance. And only about a 25 min drive to Wrightsville beach. We enjoyed our stay and would book again!

Highs and lows

The proximity to downtown and dining is amazing. The deck and the views are great. The interior could use an overhaul. It felt like a used dorm room

Wilmington stay

The property was clean. As with other units we have rented in the Riverview complex it’s small but conveniently located to the historic district. The view of the river is great. This unit was sparsely furnished with amenities and could use some improvements. Overall a good unit but not up to par with other units in this building.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The location was perfect for what I wanted. The floors and dishes were not clean when we checked in. The a/c unit was incredibly loud and obnoxious. The mattress was hard. Not firm, but hard. Other than the location, I would not recommend.

Centrally located and comfortable accommodations

This place was perfect for the two of us on a weekend getaway. It's a great location, with so many shops and restaurants within walking distance. We had no need for our car all weekend. The bed was comfortable, the place was clean, and the view of the Riverwalk was beautiful.

Great Getaway Location!!

My husband and I celebrated our 5th wedding anniversary here for a 4 night stay! The view was beautiful from our balcony, the bed was very comfortable (better than ours at home)! Located right in the middle of shopping and the best restaurants!! We really enjoyed staying here! Would definitely recommend!

Appropriate & Suitable

I loved the location and all the amenities that came with the rental. The view from the balcony was more than I expected. The rental was clean and prepared for my stay. Communication with staff was easy and hospitable. I can't say enough good things about my experience during my stay.

Will absolutely stay here again

My wife and I stayed here while attending Grizmas in July at the Riverfront Amphitheater. We could walk to and from the show (about a ten minute walk away) and we were surrounded by tons of restaurants, bars and shops. The nightlife is fun and everywhere we ate was really good. I will definitely stay here again next time we’re in town. The only caveat is that there is no on-site parking. We parked a blocked down in a parking garage and I left my car there all weekend because I didn’t need it.

no so much

The location on the river was pretty and near the riverwalk but there is a rooftop restaurant behind the building that is loud into the night. There is construction in front and the whole street is torn up.Furnishings were mismatched and not in good condition (headboard was broken off).We were asked to start towels in the wash but no detergent was provided.No dish rag was provided to wash dishes.There was a stove but no pans to use in the oven.There was a coffee maker but no filters.There were several other things but we made the best of it and left a note of our concerns.
