A little bit older, but honestly for the price and convenient location, I was pleasantly surprised. Especially since it was a suite with a kitchenette, separate bedroom, pull out couch, two TV's and two closets. Its really close to the interstate and the navy base. Highly recommend.

All was fine. This is an older Inn but still holds some charm. The room is very large with small kitchen/seating area, nice couch in front of large TV and comfortable beds. The room we got this time was fine but they haven’t yet updated the bathroom.

Where to start… we booked a suite that was in bad condition… frozen in time between the 70’s and the 90’s… fridge froze the cans, eveything is painted around like its been done super quick… smells like paint and reaks of an old humidity smell. Smile less person greets you to begin eveything…. Endless yelling in hallways. Everything is far away. Avoid this place. I will give them one thing… lots of parking.
