I stayed in The Carolinian on May 23, 2013. My review is a little more favorable than some of the others. It was Thursday night, and I stayed at the weekday rate , which put me in a little over 50.00. The gentleman at the desk was very kind and accomodating. My room was fine, the bed was comfortable and... More

I booked at this place because I only was spending one night and the price was good. Well you get what you pay for. There was an older gentlemen training a new employee behind the check-in desk that got really agitated and rude when another hotel guest came in asking to be let back in to his room because he...

I booked this hotel last minute. There was one room left and we got it. We checked in about 7 pm to get ready for the evening and then went downtown. We of course returned after 3 am. I pulled the covers back on my bed to find a comb laying in the bed. Of course it being 3 am,... More

Ended up at the Carolinian after an awful experience down the street. I was so upset when I walked in - but the girl behind the counter said she'd be glad to help. Really friendly and helpful - saying she had dealt with 2 other escapees from the nightmare hotel next door. She gave us a huge room with a... More

My wife and I enjoyed a long weekend at this refurbished motel and found it to be well equipped and clean --and quite convenient to downtown Wilmington. It was also not far from Wrightsville Beach, where we always dine on outstanding seafood at the Oceanic on the beach. This is a no-frills motel that's just right as a base of... More

Room had an odor that was not very pleasant. Lights did not work. Room not very clean. Pool was dirty. We had planned to stay several nights but cut our stay to the one night and moved on. I am sure the Inn would be fine for college students but I did not want my family staying there.

For 50 dollars a night, this has to be a good value hotel with a large, clean room, including a refrigerator and good AC. The bed was large and comfortable and although this is a very basic hotel, there is little to actually complain about. The towels are of poor quality, but that is no major hardship, and the breakfast... More
