We stayed one night to attend my son's naval graduation! The staff was extremely pleasant as well as knowledgeable about the graduation. They gave me some great tips in preparation for the graduation. They had breakfast available for those leaving early to attend. Rooms were decent. The location to the graduation-PERFECT!!!

Everything about the hotel was great with the exception of the same woman who checked me in as well as checked me out. She was exceptionally rude. Refused to give her name. She said I could mention the team when giving my review. The rest of the team that I came into contact with were perfect in interactions and courteous as well as informative about the area. The room was clean. Location was great. I would have gladly given a 5 star if I did not have that woman as a receptionist.

I did like that they offered breakfast, hotel is in need of new furniture. The chairs in my suite were some kind of vinyl , they looked pretty rough. Vinyl was peeling , the couch in the living area sunk down so bad and the coffee tables were wobbly.

The windows were old and allowed a lot of road noise. The couch was absolutely terrible. The pull out had dirty sheets on it. The couch itself was covered in stains and dirty so we got an extra sheet to cover it. Dining table chsirs were falling apart. Rooms were overall out dated.
