Location was great as we were there for Boot Camp graduation. Hotel could definitely use some updating. Carpet in the hallways was not pleasant to look at and walls could use some fresh paint. Room was comfortable.

Our overall stay was comfortable and enjoyable, but we did have to deal with a dog or two barking throughout the night. The beds were comfy, entire suite was clean, and the check-in/out process was simple. The breakfast was great with mamy options, and staff replenished items often.

Navy Graduation stay

The hotel was very big with friendly staffing for the most part. Their breakfast service was amazing, best we’ve had. Only issue we had with the room was the amount of gnats that were coming out of the bathroom sink and the state of the floors when we first arrived. Overall, for the price and quality, it was a good deal. We booked for a studio and it was perfect for our little family.
