The staff was very nice and very helpful. Went to watch my daughter graduated from the Navy. The staff set up a TV for people that could not go in person to watch. I would highly recommend this place to other families.

This property is okay for the price that you pay but the front desk staff is unprofessional and unorganized. My reservation was for 3 nights but i was charged for 4, when i questioned at check out they said we have already been charged for it but my expedia reservation said it was only a 3 night stay. Also we check out at 9am well before the 11am checkout time and the front desk kept calling claiming we left all our stuff in the room but we were already on our flight back him WITH the stuff they supposedly had. They called about 7 times while we were in the air. I tried to called back as we landed and got no answer. Wouldn’t stay again
