This is a fantastic VRBO! Great neighborhood, Good location, Excellent communication with our host, Wonderful amenities, Very clean. I called it "return-ably perfect!" Seriously, we were very comfortable here. We enjoyed the ability to walk to most of our destinations but enjoyed the home enough to choose to stay in at times. The kitchen had everything we needed for our meals. The space lent itself to having separate conversations or coming together to watch the World Series! Once you turned in at night and closed your door, it was extremely quiet. Great Place!

We loved this house and the location. The house was clean and had everything we needed. It was a modest walk or easy Uber ride to the downtown district. We would gladly stay here again next time we visit Wilmington.
