This is my second time staying here. This experience was definitely better than the last as I knew exactly what to expect in regards to noise, the band, parking and crowds. If you know what to expect it is the perfect place. It is not a place to stay if you want good sleep. But if you want great pizza and music, it is perfect if you’re trying to ski on a budget. Come prepared with noise cancelling headphones.

The room was basic which was expected for the price. The shower is extremely, extremely small. The bed was decent. Checking in is easy with door codes. But you can hear every neighbor’s sounds. And if someone is in the hallway or below your room, it honestly sounds like they’re in your room. It is not muffled. I also had the room directly above the band. To say the place is “not quiet” and that earplugs are provided if the noise exceeds your preference is a complete understatement. It is like there is a concert is in your room, everything is vibrating and my own noise cancelling headphones did not make a difference. If you’re joining in the fun, it could be fine. But I arrived after the band started, could not find parking anywhere in the town for a half hour. When I walked inside, the restaurant was so packed and there were about 30 people just in line for a drink. Amazing for the business, but long lines deterred me from joining in. I didn’t check the band calendar ahead of time and would recommend it. I guess I imagined chill live music where I could grab some beer and chill out. Something I would typically see at a brewery. But it was more like a small legit concert with lots of dancing. Again, amazing for the business, but definitely not for a traveler that wants to sleep or have a place to relax.

Housed in a former riverside mill, the rooms are basic, simple no frills rooms. The bathroom was fine (shower stall), heat excellent, but walls are very thin. Fortunately it was a quiet weekday nite for me, so the few customers went to bed early, and there was no band downstairs in the restaurant/bar. There is no front desk, you enter with door codes which worked fine. The low price was most attractive for me, and I was skiing at Mt Snow the next day. On a full weekend, parking may be kind of far from the entrance which could be a pain.

Our third time staying here. It’s a fair room with all you need but no luxuries. Close to Mt Snow (20min) and restaurants (walking). The staff is responsive via text but there’s no traditional front desk. Downside is the noise from other rooms or downstairs (pizza place/bar) when they have an event or something. As an improvement, it’d be great to have a fridge upstairs for guests.

So Much Character and Charm!
This place was full of character and charm. And for the price, you can't beat it! It's located in an old mill and all the rooms are above a restaurant. As such, it does get noisy in the rooms. With that said, it's quiet by 9pm, and since they don't serve breakfast in the restaurant, it's quiet until the afternoon. There's no tv in the rooms, which we loved! We would absolutely stay here again and again and again!

Restful enough
It was an old building and they had a sign about it which was helpful. I was alone and I don't make much noise but other people do! It was close to very good restaurants and a dispensary which was not expected. The hotel is non-smoking!

A little get away
If you want a rustic no frills place to stay, then this is a good place to go. It was an unusual experience, but not in a bad way. There’s no real check in, but the communication from the information to get into your room felt welcoming and easy to understand. The room was clean but rustic and there’s no TV which didn’t bother us but could be a difference for someone. The room was a little small but cozy. We were in the side of the river which was a bonus.

Everything about this property was fantastic. Check-in was super easy, a text was sent with all necessary info before we arrived. The room was spacious and clean. The property itself was so cool and views off the back deck were spectacular. The location was within walking distance to in downtown Wilmington. We also loved that the bus stop was just feet away and free, so getting around was super easy. We would stay again for sure.

Renter beware!
One word, "HORRIBLE"!! The room we were assigned was like 85 degrees when we opened the door. There was no AC, no fan, and no TV. The one piece of furniture, besides the bed was a bureau that looked like it had been picked up at a dump. it was so old and had a mirror attached to it. The picture that you are showing as an example of a room appears to have a modern dresser and TV in it. Where was that room? It took us over 30 minutes to get through to someone, and the person we spoke with said that they might have accidently turned off the AC when they were setting up the room for us. The thermostat on the wall was an old style dial, at least 30 years old, and did nothing when we moved it. The person's explanation as to why there was no TV or separate AC (they said it was central) was because the rooms were listed as rustic, They said we could look at other rooms, but we were done.
