Great staff.
My room was quaint and very clean. The walls are thin however an my neighbors were inconsiderate. Besides that, the location was conveniently located near base, the staff amazingly kind and a nice local restaurant was located close by.

We stayed for my son’s Navy Graduation and it’s 5 minutes away from post. Small hotel and old but has been renovated. Still needs some attention like bathrooms are super tiny and our bathroom door didn’t closed properly. Beds are full size and springs. It has fridge and microwave. A/C worked great. Breakfast is just coffee, juice and some snacks. You can hear all kinds of noise, since it’s close to the road. The room was cleaned daily. Only complaint was the last night the entire hallway smelled like cigarettes, super strong. Like someone was smoking inside. Check out was smooth and service was great.

Don’t ever stay here!
The smell that is in the hotel is disgusting. I don’t know if it’s mold, mildew or something rotting. They try to cover it up with a million air fresheners on the wall. They say they have a small casino, fitness center and breakfast and they have muffins and day old coffee, the casino and restaurant is next door not even attached to the hotel and there is no fitness center. All the pictures and details were a lie. We had to leave the window open 24/7 to get any kind of fresh air in and that was still minimal
