Verified reviews of Hampton Inn Wilmington University Area / Smith Creek Station

Below are the verified reviews from guests that we have booked in recently:
"Awesome"
Overall score5.0/ 5
Soccer tourney turned family vaca. We were scheduled for ECNL tourney and we decided to make this a family vaca. It rained the whole time! However, the majority of the team at Hampton Inn Wilmington University Area made it one of the best stays! They gave us great indoor ideas, helped us out with a room change we felt so cared for! OH and the place is SOOO clean! The breakfast was one that the kids will always remember. Everything they served was hot and very tasty! Thank you to Annie, Lanie and Larry and the Kitchen Chefs! You were just AMAZING!
