The place is super close in walking distance to some of the best restaurants coffee shops, bars, grocery stores and attractions of downtown Wilmington NC. The home is located in a very beautiful historic district. You will love it, I guarantee you’ll. Cheers Norbert

Pilot lounge

This was a basement unit and had a slight musty smell during the stay. I had made a suggestion about having some type of air freshener or purifier when I was contacted about any issues. Communication seemed to be broken after that suggestion. Overall it was an ok experience.

Noisy stay

Excellent location however we did not realize that the property above was also a rental. We were in the basement of the house which was fine but noisy when people above walked and talked or came home at 3:00 am. Had we known, we would be in the same location as another rental we would not have rented Pilots Lounge. This info should be communicated in the housing info. I will also add that the pillows need to be changed out. The were very thin and uncomfortable and the extra pillows were dirty.
