great stay! i’ll be back
trip with family for a navy bootcamp graduation. The hotel staff was extremely welcoming. The hotel was clean and housekeeping made sure we had clean towels and tissue every day even if we didn’t want our room cleaned. They are very accommodating for military families.

I thoroughly enjoyed our 5 day stay here. We were in the city for our daughter’s naval graduation and this location was prime for all the things we could’ve wanted or needed. The staff was nice and very accommodating. The daily breakfast was plentiful and was always stocked whether you wanted to sit in the breakfast area, or grab and go! Highly recommend this hotel and I will be back so long as the service remains the same 🙂

Not too bad but there are better options in area
Overall was not a bad stay. We had to have the blankets and sheets changed on both beds as one bed had some questionable stains and the other was full of dog hair. They changed them immediately. They had really good coffee (coffee was available all day) and muffins during breakfast.

Great Stay!
We stayed here 2 nights for our Six Flags getaway! The hotel is updated, clean, and all staff was friendly. The breakfast was delicate and we enjoyed how some of the options changed so it wasn't the same each day.
