Best Western Plus Marina Gateway Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"I absolutely love the special touches this hotel – especially in the lobby. It smells really good clean. It’s very welcoming and they have a beautiful Christmas tree for those of us traveling and not being able to be home for the holidays. The rooms are very clean modern and the beds are super comfortable. Definitely a great find!"
