“*This review has been updated since original post. The staff are what makes stays here the positive experience. Laundry facilities on each floor (1 Set per floor). Better than the BEQs/BOQs. (1) Staff is super friendly. (2) Across the street from the small gym. (3) Next door to Mother Ruckers. (4) Morning breakfast is free and flavored better than DFAC (5) New / updated (as of 13 Jun 22), cable provider, better select of TV channels. (6) New (as of 16 Jun 22) liquid DOVE body soap, shampoo and conditioner in bathrooms!”

“Really enjoyed my stay here! Ladies at the front desk really helped me out and got me situated swiftly! S/o the beautiful Ms Mayra and Zeeyes I remembered their names”

“I had booked my room in the later part of the evening with no issues, the front desk worker was extremely nice and helpful and explained everything I needed to know. The hotel is older but after all, you are renting a room on a military post that is very old in itself so you can't expect extreme luxury conditions but overall was a very nice room. They offer hot breakfast in the mornings which alone is worth the price. The internet was OK, it wasn't the greatest or fastest internet but I'm not renting a hotel room to play online games. The laundry and the building was free to use you just had to supply your own cleaning detergent. Parking was easy on both sides of the building with entrances on both sides as well. Room had ample lighting, There was no dark areas and everything was well lit.”

“Overall, we were pretty well satisfied (bldg 308..main) Very good rates, clean environment and a good breakfast with great dining facilities. That alone is worth $15-20 for 2 guests elsewhere. Bldg 308 is the only one I can speak about. Granted, it is a bit old and needs some updating and I am sure it would be but try squeezing money from the Army! You know how that goes! Additionally, I had an issue with the TV which was fixed immediately. I needed additional towels and they were brought quickly. I have to say the ladies at the desk are friendly and eager to help. If you are expecting Hampton ($200 per night) you may not be satisfied with the physical plant but if you need clean place to rest and kick back, I feel you will like it.”
