Do NOT stay here

Do NOT stay here unless you like sharing a room with roaches! During my stay I've killed about 12-15 roaches. Housekeeping does not use gloves when cleaning rooms and hands you dirty towels. I've spoken to the front desk several times with no resolution. The hallway smells like ass, weed and dirty carpet. I'm in the process of getting a refund for my stay. Please look for other places in the area.

Not enough food options, no vending machines in the hotel, nothing in the room to write on or with, no tv guide other than on the tv, no phone book. I understand most people uses their phone for everything, so what happens to a guest that is not comfortable looking for everything on a cell phone?

I loved the welcome sign for the Naval graduates! If they had smart tvs, it would be better. If they had an elevator, I would be better or at least someone to help with your bags. Housekeeping came in the room regardless of the “do not disturb” sign but after a polite conversation, it was solved. Overall good experience. AC works great in the room. Gets a little stuffy in the hallways though. The fan helped them a lot! I would stay again.

This place doesn't deserve any stars!!! The towels were dirty with yellow stains on them. The sheets were stinky. Mildewy smell in the bathroom. I'm so happy that we always travel with our own towels and sheets. After reservations were made we were also charged an extra $50 for a deposit + 35 for an 11:00am check in=$85. If we had somewhere else to have stayed we would have left but we couldn't get a refund.

Generally clean and quiet, comfortable beds. No frills and low cost, pretty much what I was looking for.
