This property is very well suited for Navy Graduation out of towners. It is an efficiency property. Plenty of room. Most of the staff is helpful and accommodating. No shuttle. 10 - 15 minutes to the base. You can cook in the rooms. Save on eating out. Plenty of shops nearby. Close to a mall.

Overall stay was good; however, they have shared pipes running through the property which caused some plumbing issues. You wouldn't know that something was wrong until you tried to flush and the toilet would overflow.
