I was very disappointed with the Wilmington Inn. I stayed here many years ago for my Mother's funeral and thought it was a nice clean motel. Fast forward many years and it was dirty and disgusting! I can not even explain how dirty the carpet was. I tried not to walk barefoot even in the middle of the night! I made a point to put on my shoes to just go to the bathroom. The carpet was dark, so you could not see HOW dirty is was, but barefoot, it was nasty! The tub caulk was dark and moldy! There were 2 hangers, only 2!! When I asked for more, I got 4 more. 6 hangers for 2 people is really still not enough! There was NO hairdryer in the bathroom...and NO amenities, such as shampoo, etc. The old bedspreads had cigarette holes in them. Who knows how many years they have been there. For 2 people, 2 nights we had a total of 2 towels. Since the price was at the lower end, I guess I should have expected for it to be dirty! The location is ideal, but I will never stay there again.

Bedbugs! Roaches! No refund!!!
Stayed sweet nights out of a 12-night reservation. Moved to three different rooms and the bed bugs were in all of them. My body, including my face was covered in bites. In the third room, I walked into the shower the next morning and there were roaches crawling on the walls. When I returned to the room itself, there were roaches on the walls there too. Used to be a nice place to stay but now it is disgusting. If anyone from the facility disputes this, I have pictures...

FILTHY AND UNSANITARY! DO NOT STAY!

This hotel was filthy and unsafe. The room had bugs on the bed, blood stained mattresses, the phone didn’t work, the shower didn’t turn on, dirty carpet, and dust and bugs everywhere. I had to leave at midnight and book another hotel because it was impossible to stay. Save yourself the stress and avoid this place, it’s nothing like the photos online.

I was here for an event at WEC and because I was only staying two nights, lodging was limited. I knew this was a cheap hotel and you get what you pay for, so here is the info for others considering.

The location was very easy. I appreciated being able to walk over to Bob Evans in the morning and the ample parking space. It's not far from WEC and close to restaurants and places you may want to go.

Door must be pulled shut VERY hard to lock when you leave. If you don't double check, you may leave your room and possessions unsecured. You can turn a latch once inside, but there is no secondary lock or chain. Anyone with a key card to your room could fully open your door at night. Someone did knock on my door the second night at about 2am. It wasn't aggressive, and they likely had the wrong room, but it made me very uneasy given the way the door is set up to open directly to the parking lot.

Shower pressure is completely non-existent. It was a trickle and there would be no way to shampoo my hair in it. I got by because it was only two nights and I was only spectating at my event, but if I needed to wash my hair I'd have had to go do it at WEC. Conversely, the bathroom sink was like a fire hydrant.

Air conditioner blows straight up into the curtains, so tuck the curtains into the window ledge if you want the room to actually cool.

Cleaning staff seemed to try really hard. Sheets seemed clean but the duvet/comforter was super old and had cigarette burns.

Bath tub didnt drain. Gross old carpet, crusty bed spread. Bug in the ice in the ice machine. Someone opened our door at 9am with the do not disturb sign on the door. No knocking or announcing room service. Supposedly it was room service but still scared me. There's no chain or safety bar to keep people out. I ended up wedging a chair under the door after that. Definitely don't recommend. Only good thing is a large parking lot good for big trucks.

My wife and I stayed here 8/29 - 9/1 2025
I booked this a month in advance. Was booked as 1 king, non smoking.
When we arrived, there was another guest complaining about the filthy room, cigarette burns in the comforter, and stained pillows. He offered her another room.
After I checked in, we went to our room and it was not what i booked. It was a 2 queen, non smoking. Which both bed comforters also had cigarette burns, floor had not been swept in forever, and yes the pillows were disgusting. I asked to be moved to another room and was told they didnt have another room.
Since we were kinds stuck, we went to the store and bought clorox wipes, cheep pillows and cases, and our own towels. I will never stay here again, and i highly reccomend avoiding this place at all costs.

Older hotel, not where I’d want to stay for anything luxurious. But the bed was soft, the water was hot, and the price was the cheapest of the area hotels. We were only in the room late at night and left by 6 am. Probably won’t stay here again unless I’m desperate or feeling poor.

The price for the room was very good, and the staff was friendly and helpful BUT....
the drain in the bathtub was not draining. I borrowed a plunger from the office, hoping to dislodge the clog, but with no results....so we couldn't take a shower unless we stood in the shower water.The room was clean, but everything was very old. The bed covers had cigarette holes. The main room light switch didn't work....each light had to be turned on and off separately.
But the air conditioner worked and didn't have any odor, and it was a quick walk to two restaurants, so that was handy. We've stayed in worse places, and we would probably stay there again, but it could sure use some upgrades.

Works well for our needs

The hotel works great for our purposes. I do wish that the room would be aired out before arrival since it is a bit off-putting when you walk into a musty smelling room. This was cleared up by running the air conditioner but it would be much more pleasant to arrive to a clean smelling room. That is my only true complaint about this hotel.

Get whst you pay for

Room was OK, likely more recently painted. Carpet was newer also but sticky with bare feet so needed shampooing. Furniture was older.
What they called \"deluxe breakfast\" was horrible. Two hard very stale donuts and a couple tiny stale muffins. Cream cheese in frig but nothing to put it in. Orange juice from machine was brown so we were afraid to drink it. Ignore the so called breakfast and plan on needing to eat elsewhere.

No bathroom amenities other than hand soap.

Few plugs for charging gear and one had to crawl on hands and knees to get to them. On the positive side, room was good sized and hot water quickly hot, though the water saver shower head was so constricted it took time to rinse soap off.

AC unit worked OK though the thermostat control was finicky.

The room rate was less than others in the area. The amenities, or lack thereof, was a result. So as long as you understand you get what you pay for and that their breakfast is useless and choose to be satisfied because of the lower price, you will be OK.

Comfortable and inexpensive

Everything was good, considering the price. The bed was comfortable and seemed new. The room was adequate, with a refrigerator and microwave. Bathroom had a tub/shower, toilet, sink and the main room had a sink, counter and mirror. The room smelled like cleaning products when we first went in, but it wasn't overpowering. We were on the side closest to the road and traffic noise was not bad. No breakfast but you can walk across the parking lot to Bob Evans, or later in the day to Roosters for some wings or a sandwich. There was plenty of parking and within a mile there are lots of fast food places and a Kroger. It is a short drive to the World Equestrian Center and a cost effective option to paying $250 a night or more for a WEC cabin that has more beds but only one bathroom.
