- ASAmber SpencerOct 26, 20255.0Loved my stay here! The breakfast was amazing! The staff was the friendliest of any of the places I have stayed in a long time. My room was great and nice and clean. You can’t beat the location for the price. I highly recommend this place. I can’t say enough great things about it.
- BFB FOct 18, 20254.0I would give it 5 stars if they had a meat other than sausage available for breakfast. I don't really like sausage. Wish they did bacon or ham too. Good hotel though
- DDDanielOct 2, 20251.0October 1, 2025 I stayed on the 5th floor. When I arrived to the room, nothing seemed out of the ordinary and I did basic checks under the sheets, lifted the mattress, assessed under furniture, etc and didn’t spot anything out of the ordinary. Went to bed feeling a bit less worried after a shower. However, the following morning at 7:15AM I had the strangest feeling that something was in the bed. As I lifted the sheets, I spotted a bug near my torso that was on the run. I managed to catch it between a couple of the sheets and squish it. To my surprise, blood scattered and saw it was a bed bug (See attached photos). I quickly gathered my belongings after taking a quick shower and headed to the front desk. I was provided a new room. The front desk worker called for the manager to the front. I showed the manager the attached photos and not a single apology. All I was asked was “What room was this?…Are all your personal belongings out of the room?” To which he then walked away once I responded. Now I have to worry if any of my belongings carry one of those bugs. Definitely disappointed with Hampton this time around. If you’re looking to stay around the Wilmington NC area, I do not recommend the Hampton by Hilton (124 Old Eastwood Rd).
