The views of the North Carolina battleship and the river were breathtaking. The room was spacious enough for our large family, and the pool area was enjoyable and relaxing. We were in walking distance to all the downtown shops and local restaurants, which was a huge plus.
My kids wished there were more kid-friendly activities available on-site.

I attended a wedding celebration at this venue. The food and service were impressive. Plus, the shuttle to and from the airport added convenience. A lot of guests traveled from various places, and everyone enjoyed their stay.
The check-in line was long when I arrived. The lack of room service for fresh towels was disappointing.

The city's skyline view from my window was mesmerizing, and I felt so relaxed during my stay, even though the expectations set by the pictures weren't met. Honestly, the room's aged feel contrasted sharply with the captivating riverfront walk I adored. Would I return? Probably not.

Awesome location and service!
We had a weekend getaway and the valet check-in was super smooth. Our room was comfy, but the view was just the roof, major bummer! Breakfast at the restaurant was solid. Also, the elevators smelled pretty funky, which was a letdown. Overall, it’s a decent place with a great vibe near the river walk and bars.

Loved the stunning river view room! The staff was super helpful, especially at resolving hiccups with my reservation. The pool area was lovely too!
No room service for clean towels? I should’ve just brought my own towel collection as a souvenir!

Our double room had a nice seating area and an amazing view of the river, making our stay really enjoyable. The pool and sun terrace were great spots to relax after exploring the area. One little hiccup was the cleaning service, which wasn't as timely as expected, but it didn’t ruin our experience. 😊
