Stayed here for 2 nights during my stay for my son's Navy boot camp graduation. The hotel was a nice, clean facility with a indoor pool with plenty of eating establishments near by. The staff was very nice and assisted me with printing my return boarding passes and the staff dropped what they were doing to open the pool so my son and his friends were able to use the pool during his leave off campus.

Our stay was awesome! The staff was extremely friendly and welcoming. The continental breakfast was really tasty, and the lobby is inviting. Our room was very tidy and we even got full-service housekeeping, which was a nice added bonus. We booked additional night and will be staying here again ! Thank you for a great experience.

Was their for my son's Navy boot camp graduation. The hotel was very welcoming and is pro military. After graduation, we went back to the hotel to let my son decompress. We went to the lobby to get some quick pictures by the fireplace with the US Flag above it. A gentleman that worked there offered to take a family pic of my wife my son and I. Afterwards, he thanked my son for his service and had tremendous more kind words for my son. It brought tears to my wife and I how proud we are of our...

If you’re going to Chi for PIR, this is a GREAT location! I’m from Florida and was SHOCKED at how nice everyone was everywhere we went. The hotel is clean and 12 minutes from RTC. Surrounded by many shops, restaurants, Walmart, dollar tree, and Sarges Dinner location. Safe, great breakfast, steaming of the graduation in the dining room for those that don’t have a ticket, a hot dog social for families after the graduation when you take your Sailor to the room to rest/change to Civies. Can’t say...

We stayed for our son's boot camp graduation and this place was convenient and clean. They really understood the needs of the visiting military families with gift and information packets.
