Hotel Ballast Wilmington, Tapestry Collection by Hilton
Hotel is old and the shower leaked from the pocket light and then into the main room. Maintenance was frustrated and we were moved to a new room with two double beds. The shower handle fell off in this room. The place needs a huge makeover

Pirates Cove
Found it strange that the room had no closet, wardrobe or any way to hang clothes or place suitcase other than bed or desk. Very disappointed in restaurant service on site. Walked in as single wanting to sit at a bar..:no bartender on duty at any of the bars in huge space. My room was pretty clean ...

Main reason for the rating is the fact they didn’t have coffee in lobby for free. You had to pay the Starbucks and it wasn’t open u til after 7
