Over vacation experience was great, property was clean and a quiet, security guards were friendly.

Mr.James was friendly and informative, security officers were friendly and professional they addressed me by name, area was perfect few minutes away from Half Way Tree. 5 stars! I’ll definitely come back and tell others about the great service I received while vacationing at EIGHT.
