Great place to stay

The staff was friendly and the room was very nice and clean. I had no issues and the breakfast spread was great. Based on the price, this was an excellent deal and I would stay again.

Nice, clean hotel with friendly staff.

While the pool is very small it was perfect for our 2 children 6 & 8 yrs. The depth was 3 and 4 ft. Great for small children. The free continental breakfast was wonderful with hot waffles, sausage and eggs. Best continental breakfast I've had in a long time.

Very Happy Visit

This was the perfect place to stay for our purposes. We were there to see my son graduate from Navy Boot Camp. Last year, when my daughter graduated, we stayed closer to RTC and it was horrible. Very noisy and not nearly as nice and clean. Here, we were far enough away to be clear of the revelers and very close to the Mall, Six Flags, the Interstate, Movie Theaters and a Sam's/Wal Mart for supplies and snacks.

Shopping tip: Short drive from hotel

There is an outlet mall, several restaurants, a gigantic movie theater and several grocery stores. Everyone had access to the things they needed and wanted to do/have while we were there... and its far enough off the main road that the noise of cars and people was not heard when we rested during the night or day.

Nice Hotel Friendly Staff!

The hotel it's self was nice, and the staff was nice. The pool and hot tub was very small. And we had a first floor room, and there were kids running up and down the hall all night and making noise on the floors above us that kept my daughter and I awake. It's not all that close to the entrance to Six Flags either!! It's quite a little distance if your planning on walking to the main gate. Overall the rooms were nice and clean. Breakfast wasn't very good though. And I thought it was kind expensive for a night's stay. But overall it's nice, but not spectacular!

Cheap foam pillows negatively effected sleep. Every time I left the room, the magnetic key would not work upon return. Very frustrating. No glass, everything was plastic.
