"The front desk staff was excellent and the room was very clean, but the included breakfast buffet, was a lukewarm breakfast sandwich to go...which is a bit of false advertising and completely useless for someone with Celiacs. "
Hotel Ballast Wilmington, Tapestry Collection by Hilton
2/10 Terrible
"I reserved the historic city view option , and what I actually got was a view of the roof, the a/c units and maybe the view of the roof of ONE of the historic buildings. The staff was amazing, however for the price that we paid we should have gotten a discount since we didn’t get the view that we paid for. If you select a historic view option, make sure you are not in rooms 312, 310, or 308."
"The room is clean, but the soundproofing is very poor—you can hear people chatting in the next room very clearly. Those who have trouble sleeping should be especially aware that the refrigerator is very loud. Since it’s a freezer model, there’s a loud gushing sound every ten or so seconds. Even if you unplug the refrigerator, the noise won’t stop immediately; it won’t stop until the freezer compartment returns to room temperature."
