“Great space, location and atmosphere”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 December 2011

I booked the six rooms at the inn for my wedding party the weekend of Dec. 16 and 17. I choose Stemmermans because of the proximity to my wedding venue and downtown restaurants--everything is only a five to 10 minute walk. The space is absolutely amazing and provides a great atmosphere. I loved the exposed brick and lofted bedrooms. The modern fixtures and large shower (in room 7) were great and made me feel right at home.The small kitchenettes and back deck were very nice touches. And the beds were undeniably comfortable. The owners were friendly and the innkeeper, Lindsey, was very nice. We were told when we checked in (and it was also stated on the back of the room doors) that there would be a party there on Saturday night and the noise would stop by 11 p.m. For most of my wedding party, that wasn't an issue as we were out after the wedding enjoying the hot spots in Wilmington. But for my sister and her 3-year-old son, 11 p.m. came and went and the noise didn't stop. The noise went on until almost 12:30 a.m. At the end of the day, I would stay here again and recommend to others that they stay here, but it's a word to the wise that if you're not a late night person, then pick another spot downtown for a weekend getaway.

Room Tip: Room 7 has river views and a king bed.

“Most unusual, charming inn”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 December 2011

We loved this place! Right downtown, but noise is not a factor. Charming, fully equipped, two-story suites with living room and kitchenette downstairs and loft bedrooms. Modern facilitles, common outdoor balcony facing the river. We could easily walk to everything. Innkeeper was extremely friendly and helpful. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay here again.

Room Tip: Suite 7 faces the river and has lovely views.

“Great place downtown.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 November 2011 via mobile

Stayed here for the weekend. Great, clean loft style room. Staff was great. Complimentary muffins and juice/water in our in-room frig each day. Excellent location. We didn't use our car all weekend. Felt like we had a downtown apartment. Noise was not an issue on a weekend that had multiple events happening downtown. My only suggestion would be for a shade for the sun window on the ceiling as it is very bright starting at 7am and right above the bed

“Great staff, owners, location, rooms, view.....I could go on.....”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 October 2011

We arrived in the morning after a red eye flight from the West Coast with a very tired 9 month old (wouldn't suggest it), we were met with locked doors and no one inside. The note on the front door said to call and they would meet us for early check in. After a quick returned phone call, we were met at the front door by the daughter of the owners. Quickly got us into our room and started to work on restaurant options for us (my wife being vegan). We were immediately impressed with the lofted room with exposed brick and a great view. Out for a quick lunch and a drive around the city we found our way back to the Inns parking lot. (on Front Street and free parking!) We were again met by (sorry we forgot your name but you were awesome) the daughter of the owners who had been phoning friends and friends of her parents to find us a decent restaurant with vegan options.....and she had a list. Dinner was great, bed was enormous, room was super clean and quiet. We returned one week later for our flight back to the West Coast and found my wife's toiletries that she had left behind in our room...
Another great room with a super comfy bed...
AND THEY ALLOW CHILDREN!!

Room Tip: Any....all nice

“Excited to come back!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 August 2011

This Inn was a charming renovated warehouse updated with modern decor and amenities. We were greeted by one of the owners and given a tour and taken to our room. Very comfortable and perfect location near downtown and the riverwalk. We will definitely stay here again!

Room Tip: Loved room 4 king bed with some river/downtown view. Apparently room 7 is bigger with more of a ri...
