Great Stay for Tournament Weekend

Stayed here 2 nights for a travel softball tournament, only 15 minutes from the fields in a safe area near the University of South Alabama. Clean, comfortable rooms, great breakfast, and super friendly staff. Plenty of food and grocery options close by. Will definitely stay here again for future tournaments!
