I had an exceptional experience after a long day of travel. Carrie greeted me with a warm welcome, and a pleasant conversation. I travel for work and will stay here everytime I’m in Porter’s Neck. Keep up the great work Carrie- you are the best!

A Great Value!
Pros:

This hotel will be our new go-to whenever we require accommodations in Wilmington. I really appreciated it when the front desk agent personally called me to offer me a free upgrade.
Pros
• Friendly front desk staff
• Grind-and-Brew coffee machines available 24/7 in lobby
• Breakfast (new, improved biscuits!)
• Close proximity to dining and shopping
• Well maintained room and amenities
• Quiet

Cons
• Breakfast attendant and housekeeping staff did not appear to enjoy being there.
• Breakfast was on point one day, but the next, biscuits which had cooled and hardened looked like they were just thrown in the food pan.

Mediocre
Pros:

Convenience

Cons:

Always something on every visit. One time soaked carpet from a/c. This time, e had to make our own bed, put towels and all bathroom shampoo/ lotion products away, no trash bags. Could smell the weed from the neighbor in the next room.

Carri is great.
Pros:

Carri, the front desk attendant, was excellent. She made me feel right at home. She was very personable and asked several times if I was good and if I needed anything. I am going to come back to Porters Nexk because of Carri.
