Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
The beds wers terrible, they were the most uncomfortable mattress I've ever slept on. They are covered with plastic making them so noisy. The website said 'pet friendly' but when we checked in we were directed to a room that was next to a noisy street. And were told that by the front desk that was their preferred pet room. Im pretty sure i have athlete foot now and I was wearing rubbers shoes, so the tub must carry fungus. The shower was designed for someone under 5 feet tall. Free breakfast was a room temperature yogurt, old looking fruit and a prepackaged muffin. The coffee cup was like 6 oz so that was lame. It was not enjoyable at all.

Buena localización, trato de personal en counter, estacionamiento, precio, apariencia en general fue buenísima. Lo único que no me gustó fue pedir habitación para no fumadores y tenía un olor un poco desagradable. Pero por todo lo demás estuvo excelente. La habitación estaba bien bonita. El hotel estaba localizado cerca del área que yo necesitaba.

This older building shows the positive effects of remodeling. The carpet is a bit worn, but no signs of rips or tears. The vending and ice machine was really a hike. Would've been nice to have two on our floor. The step going from the first floor to the outside was larger than a normal step which could be a hazard. This was at one end of the building that we used. The full size beds were not the most comfortable. Very few parking spots in front. A little hike to park in back of building, especially upon check in. Rounded tub was unnerving because if your feet get onto the sides it can throw you off balance. Stay right in the center and your good. Nice front desk staff.

I loved how close this was to the military base! The staff was super friendly and our room was clean. The only parts I didn’t like were the fact that our refrigerator didn’t work at first (maintenance came and fixed it later that day) and the toilet didn’t work well. Overall great stay!

It was so much outgoing and incoming traffic in the hotel at night you could here everything from your room in the hallways and bathroom was not clean to the point I didn't even take a shower there and the beds were very uncomfortable!

We were a family of 4 visiting for our son’s graduation from boot camp. I found the employees very pleasant and the building very clean. I’d highly recommend this place to families of graduating sailors.
