I had such a mixed experience at this motel. While it's right across the street from MEPS, making it super convenient for those visiting recruits, I was really disappointed with the service. When I reached out to book an additional room for my son, the staff was rude and demanded cash, which is just not acceptable these days. The price was decent considering its location, but the overall service left a lot to be desired.

I had a decent stay at this motel, especially since it was so convenient for my son's MEPS appointments. The location is a huge plus, being right across the street from where recruits are processed, and there are plenty of nearby dining options. However, my experience was marred by poor customer service when I tried to extend my son's stay, which left me frustrated. Overall, it's a good value for the proximity to MEPS, but the service could use improvement.

Unfortunately, the service was not great. When I called to discuss a reservation, the staff member was quite rude, which really put me off. I also found it odd that they requested cash to extend a stay.

The location is fantastic for MEPS as it is right across the street. Plus, there are several places to eat within walking distance.
