Great Place and Host!
We loved our stay. The apt had everything we needed. The view and location could not have been better. Host was extremely accommodating and allowed us a late check out. Like a lot of cities, Wilmington mostly had meter parking or garage parking. Host offered great recommendations to keep parking cost low. Would definitely stay right here again! Oh, almost forgot to mention the basket of treats he left us!

A gem to stay in!
Clean and cozy with a gorgeous view of the river. Everything is within a walking distance and there are endless shops, restaurants, and historical sites. We ended up parking in the parking garage on North and Grace ($14 a day). Check in instructions were clear and concise. I hope we can stay again soon!

This place was excellent. Highly recommend. The view of the drone light show for Riverfest was excellent very peaceful with beautiful sunsets over the battleship and river. Only complaint is there wasn’t soap or shampoo for the shower, which I had to run out and get and parking was a little difficult because of the festival.

The apartment was perfect for our needs - and we loved being able to sit out on the balcony to enjoy the view of the river and battleship. Plus, it was walkable to so many great restaurants.

The property itself is nice. Basic, clean space to stay in. Balcony with river view, secure entry doors. The noise, however, is TERRIBLE. Rowdy revelers, street racing(?!), sirens... no insulation to drown out the sound and it is noisy nonstop from 10p-3a. Also: NO PARKING. You have to find street parking or use a garage, there is no parking with this unit.

Excellent Birthday Getway
My husband and I had an amazing time. The property was perfect for us. We were a stones throw from everything near the riverwalk and downtown. If I could change anything it would be the parking availability and cost. Our host Nick did a wonderful job of making sure we were comfortable and we had what we needed for our stay. I look forward to staying again.

Great location
The condo was perfect for two. Comfortable and convenient to downtown entertainment. Having to park so far away was a new experience for me but that wouldn’t keep me from returning. It is something to be mindful of. However again, a lovely place with a kind helpful host. I definitely recommend it!!

Good Budget Listing for Short Trip
Elevator was broken and had to take multiple trips up 8 flight of stairs. Owner seemed very unconcerned; “These things happen.” When I asked for a few hours grace to check out later, I never heard from owner. Responded immediately when I said I was out of the property. Not a bad rental but beware of issues.

This waterfront condo checks all the right boxes, clean, spacious, comfortable, quick walk to all things good, and an absolutely beautiful front seat view of the Historic Battleship along with stunning sunsets over the water.

Great Condo and downtown location
We were in town to visit family and attend a concert on the river. It's our second time staying in this building, first time in this condo. Location is great. You can walk to everything and you have a great view of Cape Fear river while drinking your morning coffee on the balcony. The condo was clean and comfortable. A gift basket was left for us which included snacks and a couple of 'single serve' bottles of wine. (class act) We would definitely stay here again.

All you could want
My wife and I came to Wilmington for our grandson's wedding and stayed at nicks condo. The view is amazing. The walk to the parking garage is no big deal. We parked the car on Thursday and didn't use it until we left on Monday. Everything is within walking distance. When I stay at these places I always find a few negatives. Well, I found none. Nick is the perfect host. . I would absolutely stay at Nicks condo again. The gift basket was a nice touch.
