Hotel Ballast Wilmington, Tapestry Collection by Hilton
Just don’t stay here it’s not worth the money. The staff is always rude I was asked to by one of the vallet guys for money I thought that was odd considering it’s a complementary service. They don’t have room service and the ‘view’ is a waterfront look over a dirty polluted river. Also don’t stay ...

Comfort Inn University
Area seemed a bit sketchy. Some of the guests were definitely sketchy. It’s located right next to strip club/nightclub.
