Paid $200 to stay in a place with no electricity, no hot water, and the room too hot to stay in.
Pros:

The property was fine.

Cons:

At $200 a night they should’ve had generators and been prepared for power outages. Especially being in this area where storms are frequent

I did not end up staying here. I felt very uncomfortable due to a couple other guests so I left.
Cons:

I didn’t like the first floor room with a window that opened and looked out into the parking lot…absolutely no privacy. It was dark and dingy. Also felt uncomfortable because of a couple other guests I encountered there. I found another hotel 25min away and promptly left the property. Unfortunately I booked the non refundable room but I would rather feel safe especially as a woman traveling alone.

Great experience for Navy Graduation
Pros:

We stayed here during the week for the Naval Base bootcamp graduation. Hotel staff is great about sharing information about it and if you don’t use the shuttle, follow the directions given. Saves a lot of time and frustration. Hotel is breakfast is above a standard continental with a variety of hot items. Hotel is also nearby several good restaurants including Lino’s Italian and Wildberrys. Enjoyed our stay!
