Surprisingly GREAT
Pros:

I loved the updated comfortable rooms, friendly staff, surprisingly excellent breakfast and the good location (convenient to UNCW, Wrightsville beach, downtown and the airport).

Cons:

Nothing. If I had to make a suggestion, maybe add a pillow or two. But this is a great Best Western.
