Staff was very courteous. We were in North Carolina for a funeral. Nancy, (i believe her name was) gave us a sympathy card. That was such a nice and sweet gesture. I rated this stay at Comfort Inn University with 5 stars, and would recommend it.
Great price, convenient to Wrightsville Beach and downtown Wilmington. Great bar / restaurant right next to the hotel. Pretty good breakfast selection.
The room was awesome! Perfect beds! Trinity at the front desk was so helpful during phone calls and check in. Best hotel stay my son and I have had in a long time. Loved this hotel!
