"I had a very comfortable stay. Clean rooms, helpful staff, breakfast was on point, many selections to choose from, and most of all, close to the naval base and plenty of places to eat. Walmart right across the street for your essentials and a casino literally next door. Close to the freeway, easy to find, felt safe, planet fitness right across the street. If I comeback for a navy boot camp graduation, definitely this is where I’m gonna stay."
