Very happy with my stay. My only issues would be I could not connect to WiFi so unable to really use the tv or connect my devices to stream programs and the sleeper sofa in the room was not usable. Other that that I would definitely stay again.

Liked: Staff & service
The facility is showing its age, but doe to its location with limited resources to rebuild, plus the frequent severe weather (hurricanes, coastal weather, etc.) doesn't allow much improvement. It was a decent place to get some rest overnight.
