  • Vending machines on-site for quick snacks
  • Multiple restaurants within walking distance for pre- or post-show meals
  • Microwaves and fridges in-room for easy leftovers or late bites

Nightlife Options

  • Quick drive to live music venues and waterfront entertainment
  • Return to a calmer atmosphere if you want to skip the party after the encore

What People Say

  • Guests love the clean rooms and friendly staff
  • Many mention the great value for the price
