Will come back again.

This hotel was not only convenient to visiting the Johnston surrender site, it also had the very best breakfast on our trip, with plenty of protein, fruit, juices, and even cinnamon buns. The beds were comfortable and the room was quiet.

I had a very delightful stay and the price was $70 less than the recommended lodging for my visit. Highly recommend. Particularly enjoyed the free breakfast, since they had turkey sausage and I am allergic to all mammal meat. Staff was delightful.
