The staff went above and beyond to accommodate the Marine family guests. Truly appreciated the access to the shuttles, that will take you to almost all the local attractions.
Everyone on the staff was great. We were treated like royalty from the front desk to the shuttle drivers to the lady that cleaned our room and the breakfast staff.i will definitely recommend this hotel.
Art, Steven, and all the staff were excellent !
I really enjoyed my stay, the breakfast was extremely good and the room was kept clean. I would highly recommend.
Great place to stay. Room was clean, comfortable, and very spacious. King suite was fantastic! Front desk staff is excellent. Shuttle service readily available to Old Town and Marine Recruit Depot. Really fantastic service.
Nice room. Good breakfast. Convient free shuttle to the airport with a very nice driver. My only issue was I couldn't get the wifi to work, but the selection of television channels made up for it.
