The hotel is conveniently located for commuting to the Naval Base, making it a breeze to get around. The rooms needed better cleaning and updates, had a weird smell, and showed signs of wear and tear. The service was overall helpful and friendly but lacked clarity on giving directions. The location was great for easy access to nearby facilities and activities. The dining experience required room changes and offered Korean food options.

Arriving at the hotel, I was thrilled to find a room stocked with coffee and equipped with a convenient coin laundry and vending machines. Unfortunately, the lack of heating on cold days left my daughter with freezing feet, making our stay uncomfortable. Additionally, the graffiti spray-painted on the walls was quite off-putting, making the overall room experience mixed.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. While the location was convenient for my daily commute to the Naval Base and made getting around easy, the room itself stunk like mildew, dampening the overall comfort. The friendly service, unexpected in a big city, helped create a welcoming atmosphere. However, the cleanliness seemed lacking in certain areas, affecting the overall impression of the stay.

The hotel is conveniently located near a Walmart and several restaurants, making it perfect for our needs. The room had a strange hum, which unfortunately gave me a headache, but it did have a useful kitchenette with all the necessary amenities. It was a bit inconvenient having to go inside the office for everything we needed.

I had a disappointing experience at this hotel. The room was not as nice as pictured, with unpleasant smells, unclean floors and countertops, dirty pillows, and a very loud vent noise in the bathroom. Unfortunately, there was no heat during two cold days, and the staff's response was unsatisfactory.
